Montbello
Founded in 1966, this Far Northeast Denver neighborhood takes its name from the Italian phrase meaning "beautiful mountain." The name was inspired by the stunning views of Mount Blue Sky, Long's Peak, and the Continental Divide, which the neighborhood offers. Developers saw a striking resemblance between the area and the picturesque mountain regions of the Italian Alps, making this name a fitting tribute to the natural beauty that surrounds the community.
The neighborhood has also developed into a diverse and vibrant community, with influences from various cultures and backgrounds contributing to its unique character.
