I reviewed public health inspection records for the 5 most-fined apartment buildings in Denver, as well as several of the city’s most frequently cited properties. All but one received licenses, despite mountains of allegations from residents and serious habitability infractions.

New, on Denver's NWSL stadium deal: Decades of research show that when cities shell out millions of dollars to build stadiums, they rarely recoup their costs — and the local economies see limited growth. For some, that's not the point. #copolitics denverpost.com/2025/05/04/den…

Denver Mayor Mike Johnston has swung big during his first two years in office. Sometimes moving fast has played in his favor. Other times, the strategy seems to fall flat. Should he slow down to accomplish his goals? denverpost.com/2025/07/13/den… #denver #copolitics
