I can’t stand CO. Residents there think they are above others, especially if you have Texas plates on your vehicle. All that you described reminds me of California. Who knows, CO. might overtake CA. in the economy that tanks 1st.
I worked in downtown Denver from 2016 to 2020 for a company whose name is on the building at 18th and California.
I lived with one of our sons and his family during the week for the first couple of years until I was promoted to a travel job in mid-level management and could return home to Idaho. That first two years I would park a few blocks away each morning and walk past the reasonable (and mostly polite) homeless - a couple of whom I got to know well enough to offer food and occasional cash.
After COVID when travel came back and before I retired the difference was ghastly. Our five floors of office space went down to two - I wouldn't dare park away from the building, and going to lunch off-site was always a group event - safety in numbers.
So yeah - I watched that first-hand - it was sad...but to be expected!
Thanks Ashe for the reminder of what was lost - and why!
Axios should correct its quote from “expected to receive….” to a more appropriate “EXPECTING to receive…,” because Colorado is graduating from FA to FO.
These cities have no business sponsoring and encouraging the protests as they do, and then insist they won’t work with ICE or government agencies. Bullshit. It is their job to work with them, and to stop their own obstructing Federal agencies from their law enforcement. This is pandering crap.
Absolutely true. I know people who moved into a highly sought after 16 th St condo 2 weeks before lockdown. Now that condo is in a war zone and they are moving to Wyoming
Downtown Denver after lockdown sounds like downtown Philly! Trains never regained normal schedule. People work from home so much, or locally. Life forever changed, very sad. I met a lot of people who think like I do, so God opened doors for me. Thanks, Ashe, for your diligence to Mike's trial. Sure hope it's the decision we all want!
Well done Ashe!!
