Old North End & Surrounding Historic Communities

Welcome to the Old North End and the historic neighborhoods north of downtown.

Many know the area north of Downtown Colorado Springs as the Old North End, but here you'll find several communities with their own distinct charm and offerings.

The Old North End, Patty Jewett and Historic Uptown are three of the Springs' most storied and picturesque districts. With grand Victorian mansions, charming craftsman bungalows and wide shady streets, the Old North End is a place where families stroll past iron fences, runners loop through landscaped medians and students walk to and from class on the Colorado College campus.

The Patty Jewett neighborhood is named after the public golf course that forms the eastern edge of the community and includes mostly residential homes within a mature urban forest. Historic Uptown is a diverse and thriving urban neighborhood that dates back to the city's founding in 1871. It blends parks, restaurants, boutiques, museums, arts and culture and sports facilities all within walking distance.

Also part of this area are Roswell and Kitty Hawk. Roswell was once its own railroad town before it was annexed into the City of Colorado Springs. Kitty Hawk is just east of Roswell, running into Nancy Lewis Park. With so much history and unique character, it's worth exploring not just the Old North End but each of these surrounding communities.
