Why Jefferson Park has its own termite considerations
Built for owners of 1880s-era wood-frame homes as well as owners and buyers of the newer condo infill nearby.
Jefferson Park’s buildings date to the 1880s, originally part of the independent Town of Highlands (founded 1871, annexed by Denver in 1896).
The neighborhood is named for a five-acre neighborhood park built on a former city dump site.
Recent newer condo infill development has arrived in the past decade, creating an old/new construction mix.
The sheer age of this late-1800s wood-frame and brick construction — comparable to Highland, its former sister-town neighborhood — is the specific local risk factor, alongside the newer infill nearby.
