An unprepossessing storefront at the north end of the Tracks/EXDO building at 35th and Walnut streets doesn’t look much like RiNo’s hippest new gathering space. From the outside, it appears much like a dentist office or perhaps a small legal firm. The name on the door, Millers & Rossi, might even…
Velorama won’t hit Colorado until August 11, but it’s already on a roll.

But it’s not too late to get a deal.

When you look at RiNo today, it’s hard to remember what this area looked like a dozen years ago, when two artists formed the RiNo Art District in a dusty old warehouse area. In fact, the neighborhood is almost unrecognizable from then — or even from six years ago, when the Matchbox, which Sarah McGill just profiled, opened on Larimer Street.
Opening day weekend festivities continue, but while the Colorado Rockies again take Coors Field, some fans worry about what’s going on outside the ballpark. Does Denver really need to party on Opening Day? Not
