About
Great Lawn Park is the social heart of Denver's Lowry neighborhood — a planned community carved from the former Lowry Air Force Base that has become one of the city's most desirable family neighborhoods. With 756 Google reviews at a 4.6 rating, Great Lawn Park earns its place as a community anchor.
The park's design centers on a large open grass lawn that is genuinely great for the activities that open grass was made for: kite flying, frisbee, family soccer games, spontaneous running, and lying on a blanket watching the Colorado sky. In summer, the park hosts outdoor concerts and community events — check lowrydenver. com for the schedule, as the free summer series consistently draws neighborhood families.
For families visiting Denver, Lowry is an often-overlooked neighborhood with a lot to offer. Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum is within the neighborhood and is an excellent family addition to a Great Lawn Park visit. Lowry Town Center nearby has a solid selection of restaurants and coffee shops.
Open 6AM to 10PM daily, the park is accessible for early morning family walks and evening events alike.
