Bounded by Speer Blvd., W. 8th Ave., Delaware & Elati Sts.—National Register 9/17/1986, 5DV.24
The gardens are both a neighborhood park and an embellishment for Speer Boulevard. George Kessler and Saco R. DeBoer both had a hand in the design executed in 1909-11. The park incorporates many of the key conventions of late 19th century and early 20th century park design, including an informal forested vale which merges into an open, symmetrical space which in turn functions visually as a formal manor house, garden-like setting for Denver’s West High School. The property is associated with the Denver Park and Parkway System Thematic Resource.
