It’s another hot summer in The Mile High City. We’ve already reached the upper 90s, and it’s not even July yet. Luckily, your luxury apartment at The Residences stays nice and cool this summer. If you want to get outside, here are a few ways to stay cool in the Denver area this summer.

​Cool Off with Culture

Step inside and cool off at one of Denver’s famous museums. The AC will be up, and your mind will be blown by the culture and beautiful exhibits at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science or the Denver Art Museum.

​Find a Reservoir

Spend the day in the cool waters of one of the area’s reservoirs. Cherry Creek Reservoir is just minutes from The Residences. You could also venture west to Chatfield or Bear Creek for an afternoon of paddleboard fun.

Run For the Hills

If you need an excuse to visit the mountains, there isn’t a better one than seeking cooler temperatures. Enjoy an afternoon at one of the small mountain towns. Idaho Springs, Evergreen, and even Keystone are not that far away. Great views, cooler temps, you can’t go wrong.

Food, Cocktails, and Shopping

What’s better than enjoying a hot walk along a sidewalk and then stepping into an air-conditioned shop or restaurant? In Cherry Creek, you have plenty of options to enjoy a stroll, then cool off by browsing a local store or enjoying a cold drink at one of the area's fine dining establishments. Check out Cherry Creek North restaurants and bars.

As the summer heats up, hopefully these ideas will keep you cool. Whether you explore Denver or the mountains, you can have peace of mind that you’re coming home to luxury at The Residences at Fillmore Plaza.

Earth Day is just around the corner, bringing extra awareness of how we can all get involved and invest in our planet. Hundreds of thousands of people will gather on Wednesday, April 22, to celebrate. There are many events and activities in Denver, including community clean-ups, educational workshops, and local fairs, but you can also do everyday things to help. Here are three ways to fight climate change every day.

Try a Climate-Friendly Diet

Did you know that you have a foodprint? It measures the impact of growing, producing, transporting, and storing our food. Our foodprint creates more than a quarter of all greenhouse gas emissions. Adopting a plant-based diet reduces the resources required to produce animal-based foods. If more people made this shift, it would use less water, conserve land for crops, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from food production.

Go Plogging

​You’ve probably been running, walking, or hiking, but have you been plogging? It’s where you combine running, walking, or hiking with picking up trash. When you track your miles or kilometers, you can track how much waste you pick up. Picking up trash and litter along trails or roads will help keep it from entering our waterways and, eventually, the oceans. Learn more about plogging and a few people who have embraced it here. here.

Remove. Refuse. Rally to Cut Plastic

Plastic is one of the largest contributors to environmental pollution. We've heard about reducing, reusing, and recycling to help lessen plastic's impact. This year, focus on these three "R's" to cut plastic pollution: Remove, refuse, rally. Remove any plastic you see on the ground. Refuse plastic straws and cups by opting for reusable alternatives. Rally your community to reduce single-use plastics, such as bags and similar items.

Start your eco-friendly lifestyle today by joining Earth Day 2026 events throughout the Denver Metro Area. Start with the Annual Earth Day Cherry Creek Cleanup event or attend a local community picnic, all just minutes from The Residences at Fillmore Plaza.

Warm temperatures have brought early spring vibes to the Denver metro area. Whether you’re planning to camp, book a mountain resort, or enjoy a local festival, it’s time to map out your summer. Here are three Denver festivals to add to your calendar.

The Denver Jazz Fest

After soaking up the spring atmosphere, make sure you don’t miss The Denver Jazz Fest. Denver has a long, rich history of Jazz. The Five Points neighborhood is renowned for having some of the most famous jazz musicians play as they traveled from the East Coast to the West Coast. This year’s Denver Jazz Fest is bigger and better than ever. Spanning over 6 days, 15 venues, and 40 unique shows, it’s adding up to be one of the best music festivals of the year. Check out The Denver Jazz Fest, April 7-12, in venues throughout Denver and Boulder.

Outside Days

The Outside Days festival, May 29–31 in Denver, is a perfect fit for Colorado. Now in its third year, it combines music, outdoor adventure, film, and speakers. Enjoy major acts like Death Cab for Cutie, My Morning Jacket, and Cage the Elephant. Watch film screenings and see athletes perform on bikes and climbing walls. Attend seminars and panels about the outdoors.

The Cherry Creek Arts Festival

Discover creative inspiration at the Cherry Creek Arts Festival, steps from The Residences in Cherry Creek North. Enjoy music, art, and culture from over 250 artists. Explore art exhibits, meet the artists, and learn about their work. As a resident of The Residences, you can take advantage of exclusive perks during the festival, such as early access to select events and special resident-only gatherings. July 3-5 will bring fun, music, and food to Cherry Creek North.

Whether you choose one of these festivals or another event, summer in Colorado is filled with activities. Living at The Residences at Fillmore Plaza keeps you conveniently close to every event in Denver.

Have you been enjoying this unusually warm winter? With temperatures staying in the 60s all through February, it’s a great time to get outside for some fresh air or exercise. At The Residences, you can walk around Cherry Creek North, or, if you want more open space, you’re in luck. Some of Denver’s best parks and open spaces are just minutes away. ​

Denver Parks Offer Plenty of Options ​

Denver has 2,500 acres of parks and parkways you can enjoy year-round. If we get some spring snow, try nordic skiing, snowshoeing, or sledding. When it’s warm, you can go for a jog, have a picnic, or play volleyball with friends. Some of the most popular parks are Washington Park (Wash Park), City Park, and Cheeseman Park. ​

 Take an Adventure Out of the City

When you think about getting out of the city, you might picture a drive up I-70 to Summit County. But if you want to stay closer to home, there are plenty of open spaces and state parks nearby. On warm spring days, you can explore the trails at Cherry Creek State Park or Chatfield State Park. Golden Gate State Park, just outside Golden, is great for snowshoeing close to Denver. Red Rocks is another spot you might not consider unless you’re going to a concert, but it’s also a great place for exercise and amazing views. You can hike and explore the trails around the amphitheater. ​

We’ll see what March brings, since it’s usually our snowiest month. If you’re feeling ready for spring and want to get outside without going far, there are plenty of options just minutes from your door at The Residences at Fillmore Plaza. ​
