5280: Denver's Magazine

What's 5280?
If you're new to Denver, it may take a second or two to figure out that 5280 takes its name from the city's mile-high elevation...five-thousand, two-hundred and eighty feet above sea level.

5280 stories like "Denver's Top Doctors," "Denver's Best Bargains," and our annual restaurant guide quickly became the focus of discussions at cocktail parties and water coolers all over town, not to mention frequent coverage in other area media.

Today's 5280 has more readers than any local magazine in Colorado. In fact, in Denver, 5280 outsells most national publications, with a readership that exceeds such well-known national magazines as Time, People, Oprah, and Martha Stewart Living.

By Maximillian Potter

The House On Downing Street
By Michael J. Henry
