The Original Shopping Districts

The Original Shopping Districts is the only organization in the country created to promote great, historic shopping venues. We are passionate about expanding the awareness of these amazing destinations and hope that you will stop by soon and see how special shopping can be.

If you are someone that has spent the day shopping in one of our member’s historic districts or if you have visited for one of their many special events, you know what a wonderful experience this can be. If you have never shopped in one of these districts or spent a few hours to browse and have lunch, we are excited to extend a welcome invitation to you.

You will find store owners who take pride in creating a friendly environment. They know the stories and have intimate knowledge about all the special items in their shops. You will find salons, pottery and art galleries. You will see beautiful tree lined streets and unique historic architecture. You will also find many of Denver’s most unique restaurants and cafés. You will experience a down home, genuine atmosphere that begs you to relax and enjoy yourself.

Our member districts include Historic Downtown Littleton, Old South Pearl Street, Old South Gaylord Street and Historic Olde Town Arvada. Just click the link to the district for a district overview, map/directions and merchant listings. We welcome our latest member district: Historic Downtown Golden.

Our “Adventures In Shopping” eNewsletter informs subscribers about Upcoming Events, Cool Stuff, Unique Gift Ideas and Special Sales & Offers. Stay in the loop and sign up today.
