About Five Points

Five Points is a neighborhood in Denver surrounding the intersection of Washington Street, 27th Street, 26th Avenue and Welton Street. The neighborhood is located northeast of downtown Denver. The neighborhood is often considered the historic center of Denver's African-American community.

In the 30s and 40s the neighborhood was a hub of jazz bars and clubs. Today, you'll find the Black American West Museum and Heritage Center there, as well as the Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library.
