A Denver council member is balancing compassion with a crisis in regards to the growing number of incidents at homeless encampments around 21st Street and Broadway.
Newly elected Denver District 9 Councilman Darrell Watson said Denver has a housing crisis — something that is far from new.
Watson said, through the executive order, the councilmembers and mayor have demonstrated great compassion for those struggling on the streets. At the same time, police must enforce the criminal code within the city, Watson added. These issues have also impacted several businesses, who are concerned about keeping their doors open, as Denver7 previously reported.
“There is no direct way to park and get to our entrance without walking through a homeless encampment right now,” added Scott Coors, owner of Triangle Bar on Broadway.Downtown Denver businesses report 40% dip in sales as encampments engulf block Russell Haythorn 5:55 PM, Aug 16, 2023 The British Bulldog on Stout and Broadway has been in the area for more than 100 years.
