Where is Colfax Avenue? The Fillmore Auditorium on East Colfax.Ĭolfax Ave. As more people continue to see the charm that Colfax delivers, it will only continue to thrive and evolve back into the great main street of Denver that its past exhibits. Most of the commercial route is lined with shops, restaurants, hotels and a myriad of other colorful businesses. It’s continuously commercial the whole route, making it the longest street of its kind in the nation.

Along these 26.5 miles are locally raised businesses that have helped shape the cultural arena of Denver today. It runs between Golden, Lakewood, Denver and Aurora. Though Colfax has experienced an infamous past, today it’s brimming with history, entertainment, and glorious eats. Whether you’re a longtime resident of the Mile High City or you’re visiting for a couple of days, Denver’s historic main street, Colfax Avenue, (aka “the longest, wickedest street in America”) is worth a visit.
