Valverde

The flag’s design reflects the influence of the South Platte River and the natural topography that has shaped Valverde for generations. The neighborhood’s identity is deeply tied to the river—both as a source of livelihood and a force of destruction. The devastating flood of 1965, which damaged or destroyed nearly 3,000 buildings, tested Valverde’s resilience, but the community rebuilt, emerging stronger than before.

This flag pays tribute to that enduring spirit of renewal while honoring the neighborhood’s historical roots. Its elements evoke the flow of the river and the lush landscape that continues to define Valverde today—a community shaped by both nature and perseverance.
