The 16th Street Mall has long been a thorn in the side of Denver dwellers who don’t shop at souvenir stores, don’t care to inhale second-hand smoke and don’t want to sign petitions.
But now the Downtown Denver Business Improvement District is installing Patio 16, an outdoor dining area in the median of the carless street between California and Stout streets.
Patio 16, which opens at 11:30 a.m. Friday, will offer outdoor seating, enclosed patio railings, a variety of menu options from six local vendors and an outdoor respite for the downtown Denver community to gather, dine and unwind. Patio 16 provides a family-friendly area staffed during hours of operation to ensure a safe, clean and friendly experience, that is open to all residents, employees and visitors.
Opening day activities will include entertainment and food sampling from 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. For more information, visit www.downtowndenver.com/about-the-bid.
