History

Lowry Dog Park in Denver, Colorado, offers a unique blend of history and recreation.

Located at E 4th Pi and S Yosemite Way (zip code 80213), this dog park sits on the site of the former Ezra M. Bell estate, a landmark steeped in Denver’s past.

Established in 1903 as part of the city’s annexation of Park Hill, Lowry Dog Park played a key role in shaping the neighborhood’s development and promoting diversity.

Originally platted by Baron von Winckler in 1887, the area began as the Holly Junior High School.

This school became Park Hill Junior High School and later Smiley Middle School, eventually transforming into Smiley Campus.

Notably, it was the first desegregated junior high school in Denver, a significant historical marker.

The park’s design reflects the Spanish Colonial Revival architectural style, adding to its charm.

Today, Lowry Dog Park continues to provide a valuable space for dog owners and their furry friends in the Denver community, all while honoring its rich and diverse backstory.
