The City of Denver will temporarily rename Blake Street to "Tooley Street" in honor of the late Dale Tooley, who was a longtime Denver District Attorney, one-time mayoral candidate, and full-time Irishman.
More than 200,000 Irish folk have headed downtown Denver for the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade since it started in the 1960s. The parade features marching bands, bagpipers, step dancers, floats, as well as throngs of people, leprechauns, and Irish maidens all dressed in green.
The parade this year will start at the Coors Field parking lot and end at 27th and Blake Street which will be renamed Tooley Street for the parade. If you have kids, go to the ending spot as this will be the best place for families to watch the parade. It’s an event you will not want to miss!
