Pillar of Fire Building
Westminster is a well-kept secret nestled between downtown Denver and Boulder, Colorado.  With a suburban feeling but a quick commute to the downtown Denver business district, you truly can get the best of both worlds in Westminster.  A short drive west and you are in the foothills and beautiful Rocky Mountains.  In addition to the great location, Westminster offers a huge variety of shopping, and entertainment choices close to home.

Some of the best features in Westminster include the hundreds of recreational activities.  A recent addition that provides a huge variety of activities if the Westminster Promenade, which includes an AMC 24 Theatre, every kind of restaurant you can imagine, a Dave and Buster’s, and a state of the art ice arena for your young hockey players and ice skaters.  For a view of Westminster, visit City Hall, where you can climb the 181 stairs to the top of the bell tower for a fabulous view of the entire metro area and the Rocky Mountains. With direct access to major highways, Westminster's central location between Denver and Boulder puts it within easy reach of major business centers, retail centers, and a variety of entertainment and recreational facilities. Activities in Denver or Boulder are a 20-minute drive in either direction and the drive from Westminster to Denver International Airport takes approximately 30 minutes.

The list of other fun things to do in Westminster is endless. There are recreation centers, golf courses, parks, open space trails, roller-skating, soccer, miniature golf, swimming, and hundreds of restaurants and retail stores. Westminster has everything you need for doing business and having fun. If history is your interest, take a step back in time and visit Westminster as it was 100 years ago by visiting the Bowles House Museum. Or, drive by the Pillar of Fire building - a majestic neo-Romanesque-style building built in 1892. Both buildings, along with others in the area, are listed on the National Register of Historical Places.
