Sunnyside

The flag of Sunnyside reflects the North Denver neighborhood’s deep-rooted history, from its early days of small truck farms and orchards to its growth into a thriving and diverse community.

The flag’s design draws inspiration from the Sunnyside United Neighbors logo, incorporating elements that symbolize both the neighborhood’s past and present. The yellow represents its agricultural origins, while the blue signifies the nearby waterways and Sunnyside’s connection to the greater Denver area. At the heart of the design, the sun symbol pays tribute to the neighborhood’s name and its history, including the incorporation of the town of Argo and the diverse community that shaped the area.

Additionally, the flag reflects Sunnyside’s strong ties to the railroad, which played a crucial role in its development by bringing industry and workers to the area. The neighborhood’s rich immigrant history—particularly its Italian and Hispanic communities—is also embedded in the flag’s symbolism, honoring the generations who built and continue to shape Sunnyside.

By blending these historical and community-driven elements, the flag stands as a visual emblem of Sunnyside’s heritage and its continued evolution as a vibrant, connected neighborhood.
