It's the little things that make an area livable.
Sure, the people who live in LoHi have over fifty of the Denver metro area's best restaurants to choose from. And anyone who live near Santa Fe Drive has a First Friday art walk at their fingertips that's a little like Spring Break on South Padre Island (if South Padre Island were a strip of art galleries, and its college kids were Denver art afficionados).
But I wouldn't want to live in either neighborhood because of the little things. In Belmar, we've got restaurants and an art walk, too, but if you live here, you can also walk to buy a gallon of milk or buy a roll of duct tape-- the kinds of things you find yourself needing to buy in real life all the time, and which require a car trip in most neighborhoods.
Soon, we'll also be able to walk to a dry cleaners. Dependable Cleaners is opening a location in the space that formerly held the Belmar Information Center, at 408 S. Teller St.
Yes, it's a little thing, but I'm looking forward to being able to drop off my dry cleaning without having to take a car trip down Wadsworth.
