Lodo has some pretty cool older buildings. The Denver Botanical Gardens is a few miles away from Lodo.

Lodo? Is that the Train area? Awesome thanks :)

I'm going to be stuck in Denver until around 4p to meet up with Number2 on Friday; so I wanted to abuse some shots with my camera & car :)

There a few alleys around with some cool graffiti. 6th ave and 8th ave bridges off I25. Random motels off colfax? Idk.

Yeah. East is worse than West. Best to not travel alone at night. I only heard of one hooker being killed last month. Down the street from the new place. ;)

But yeah there are some cool places around to take pics.

Edit: Explore google maps a little from my link That place looks like a good spot. Perhaps you can catch a train going by or just use that old worn fence. Look around there from about I-25 to Kalamath Colfax to Alameda. It's a small industrialish area. Should find something. If I weren't busy I'd come out and help find/guide you to spots. There is a power plant near there and Invesco Field. Pepsi Center and Elitche Gardens.
