We were excited to visit this street, thinking it would be a hive of activity. We arrived around 11am ish and everywhere looked closed or empty. The street is no more than a few 100 metres long. We pretty much walked through it in less than 5 minutes. We were glad we’d had breakfast before visiting. Perhaps it has more atmosphere in the summer months or at nighttime and we just went at the wrong time.

Larimer Square is just one block. It's got nice, historic architecture and some upscale restaurants, but other than that, there's not much happening here. It's nice to walk through and get some pictures, but unless you're dining, it's probably not a must-see.

Visited Larimer Square at the request of my daughter. She had read about it and wanted to see it during our brief visit to Denver. We were fortunate to find parking just at the north end of the two block stretch of vendors. We were there around 3 p.m. and it was moderately busy. You could walk up to almost any vendor and have a discussion, be shown items or make a purchase. The busiest tent was a fancy lemonade stand! The vendors has littel to interest me but the standing stores were better. Several restaurants and jewelry stores. But the most important part was the architecture! It was beautiful. Most of it 150 years old or more and sooooo beautiful. Craftsmen made them in the old days and they were proud of their work. They created something beautiful...not just slinging up offices. It is worth a quick trip if you are downtown for something else. I doubt I would go into town just to see this.

Very pretty square with architectural details, flags, and lighting that make for a good stroll and picture taking. There are a handful of restaurants (Osteria Marco is good) but also a number of empty storefronts. Unless you have dinner in the square, you probably wont spend much time there
