    The quickest way to navigate Denver is to get on I-25 and get out of there as fast as you can.

    I dunno about that.
    one way puts you in Ft Collins (worse)
    the other way puts you in Colo Springs (way worse)

    I think you meant I-70

    that is a lot of stuff to take in... glad i live here now, our streets are very easy. we use numbers and the alphabet, really simple. an eighth of the size or less, but still...

    Good info and pretty spot on with one minor correction-streets west of Broadway are not "Spanish" names but rather names of Indian Tribes (North American Aboriginal Peoples groups to the PC crowd)
    The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

    I lived in a grid city before.


    Streets North to South were alphabetical names.
    Streests East to West were numerical.

    Made finding anything super easy.

    Thats the ONE nice thing about Greeley, at least the older/main part, east/west 1st through like 103rd ave, north/south 1st through 49th street. Then you have east and north, but for the most part all the numbers line up. Streets/Ave's should be numbered, not named.

    You guys would have been lost back in my small town in New England. All the streets were named-no numerical anythings. When I moved out here my first thought was "why don't they do this everywhere ?"
