DENVER INFORMATION |
 |
The City and County of Denver is the
capital and largest city of the U.S. state of Colorado. It is
located on the plains just east of the Rocky Mountains and forms the
heart of the Denver-Aurora metropolitan area. Denver is nicknamed
"The Mile-High City" because its official elevation, measured on the
fifteenth step of the state capitol building's west side, is one
statute mile (5,280 feet or 1,609 meters) above sea level. Denver
has also been known historically as the Queen City of the Plains
because of its important role in the agricultural industry of the
plains regions along the foothills of the Front Range. The
cheeseburger was invented in Denver by Louis Ballast who operated
the Humpty Dumpty Barrel drive-in.
