About Denver
Denver is Colorado's capital and largest city, sitting at about 5,280 feet, which earned it the nickname the Mile High City. Its housing ranges from historic bungalows and Victorians to modern infill and high-rise construction.
Regional considerations
Colorado's dry air, strong sun and wide temperature swings affect how concrete sets and cures. Cold-weather pours may need protection such as blankets, and hot, windy days can speed up surface drying.
