North Alameda
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
North Alameda holds the blocks just above West Alameda Avenue, brick ranches, split levels, and Tudors built between 1950 and 1969 on lots of an eighth to a fifth of an acre. O'Kane Park anchors the middle with ball fields, playgrounds, and looping paths, and the Washington Heights Arts Center faces it across West 1st Avenue. Belmar and its 80 plus storefronts sit under a mile southwest, with the Lakewood Cultural Center on South Allison Parkway. Wadsworth Boulevard and West Alameda Avenue frame the area, US-6 is about five minutes north, and downtown Denver is six miles east.
