Whittier Real Estate

A historic Denver neighborhood, the Whittier real estate area is named after John Greenleaf Whittier, American poet and abolitionist. Whittier lies between Martin Luther King Boulevard, 23rd Avenue, York, and Downing. Perhaps the most beautiful mainstay in the area is the historically significant St. Ignatius Loyola Church on the corner of 23rd and York. Between twin bell towers and stately red brick of the church, and the grand, yet fabulously affordable homes in the area, it is not surprising that Whittier real estate is attracting both Denver newcomers and natives, alike.
