Expo Park
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Expo Park is the neighborhood between Alameda Avenue and Exposition Avenue from Havana Street to Peoria Street, platted in the early 1970s under the Queensborough and Expo Park filings of 1971 to 1974, with ranch and split-level single-family homes alongside condos and townhomes. The park of the same name fills the west side with athletic fields, the Expo Recreation Center and an 18-hole disc golf course, and both the High Line Canal and Westerly Creek pass through it, so two regional trails meet at the neighborhood's edge. Havana Street's retail strip is the west boundary and I-225 is about two miles east on Alameda. Schools here fall in the Cherry Creek district, Highline Community Elementary, Prairie Middle and Overland High, not Aurora Public Schools; verify by address.
