I lived north of Yale in Denver, but still close to Cinderella City from 1960-1980. I remembered that there was Dry Creek park where Cinderella City was built on. I used to ride my bike to Red Rocks as well in the 1960's through 1977, even as far as Squaw Pass. I used to climb on those rocks. I've been up Mt. Evans in 1971. The Red Rocks is the Fountain formation on Precambrian gneiss. The famous Morrison formation is on the hogback east of the park in Morrison, for which it is named after. I used the Morrison road or the Alameda Parkway cut to bike to the park. Red Rocks, Echo Lake and Lodge and Summit Lake on the Mt Evans Road are in the City and County of Denver mountain parks system. University of Denver had the Meyer-Womble observatory off of the parking lot on Mt Evans. A 1971 aerial of US 285 (Hampton) and Cinderella City as well as launch sites is in the intro of my model rocket video from 1973. th-cam.com/video/Hg-PZO3k8ro/w-d-xo.html
I was living there at the time, I barely recognize it now when I visit. Cinderella City's long gone as well as the drive-in off Hampden there. Lots more traffic now too.

This is incredible footage
That is Englewood Co because I recognize the Chase bank, it's still there.
Not chase anymore but yes still a bank.
There was a Chipotle on the ground level in 2015, my son worked there as his first job

The drive-in was named the Cinderella Twin, and you could see each screen as you were on Sante Fe traveling in either direction.
" 😐 . No Venezuelan gangs taking over buildings. 😐 .".
