History

Berkeley Park in Denver, Colorado, boasts a rich history deeply intertwined with the development of the city’s educational landscape.

Originally owned by Denver businessman and philanthropist George W. Clayton, the land served as the site of a dairy farm and, crucially, a training ground for students at the Clayton School for Boys, established in 1911 across Colorado Boulevard.

The school, initially founded in 1894, provided agricultural skills training to young men, utilizing the park’s space for practical learning.

This location’s evolution from a dairy farm to a school highlights the area's significant contribution to Denver’s educational heritage.

The park’s origins are fundamentally linked to the Clayton School for Boys and its mission of agricultural instruction.
