This 1.5-mile parkway is of a type used to connect parks (in this case Rocky Mountain Lake Park with Berkeley Lake Park). 

Designed by Jules J.B. Benedict, the 1930-33 Weckbaugh house is one of few local examples of the Norman Chateau style. The large mansion, with ten bedrooms and baths, is situated on 1.7 acres of landscaped grounds.

Reinhard Schuetze laid out this scenic park in the grand Victorian manner in 1889.  It features two beautiful lakes; the largest meadow in the Denver park system; a remnant of the City Ditch (which was essential to the watering and hence the development of the park); a forested hill graded by the Olmsted Brothers and planted by DeBoer; romantic deciduous tree plantings; the largest formal summer flower beds in the Denver park and parkway system; and important architectural embellishments such as the 1913 Boat House on Smith’s Lake.

The 1912 Manuella C. Walters Duplex is an unusual example of side-gabled Foursquare form with Craftsman style detailing, such as overhanging eaves with exposed rafters, brick exterior, and gabled front porches with truss work. 

The Voorhees House is one of a series of six designed by prominent Denver architects William Lang and Marshall Pugh for real estate developer Ralph Voorhees.  Voorhees platted the six-block West Colfax subdivision in 1891 as part of his growing real estate and city improvement activities. 

Constructed between 1890 and 1893, the five Vine Street houses were part of Denver’s early residential real estate development before the Silver Crash and depression of 1893.

The 1949 classroom building is an important post World War II example of the International Style.  The stair towers, the horizontally ribboned windows and the use of the cantilever are all distinctive characteristics of the style. 

The original 1928 portion of the church building is a significant local example of the Late Gothic Revival architectural style. 

University Boulevard serves the south Denver neighborhoods much as Montview Boulevard serves the east Denver neighborhoods.  The 1.5-mile route was planted in sections between 1908 and 1920 with a wide variety of typical Denver street trees, including American elm, silver maple, honey locust, green ash, and rock elm. 

The Neoclassical Revival style building was designed by the New York architectural firm of Tracy, Swartwout and Litchfield in 1909.
