Dairy Block — Local services in Denver

Parked my car there on 18 June 2021 at around 2200-2230 in their parking garage. I bought my ticket with me as the sign instructed me too.

I tried to get back into the garage around 0300(basically 5 hours once I parked). Mind you, this is a 24-hour garage. I tried to enter the garage with my ticket thru the main entrance with the security guard working in the front desk. My ticket wouldn’t scan for some reason. I tried to show the security guard on duty at that time but he ignored me. I rang the service button in which he also ignored me; same as calling the front desk.

I tried to get his attention by waving my arms around and showing him my ticket and trying to inform him that my vehicle is inside the garage but I cannot access the garage due to the fact that he won’t let me in.

We literally made eye contact. He quickly glanced away to view the security CCTV in the front desk in which it had observation of me. Basically; he left me outside for about 45mins-1hr until I gave up trying to get in and had to buy a hotel which was around $500.

I forgot to mentioned; he also called the police on me as I was walking away because from what the police told me, “ I was suspicious and looked like I wanted to get in the garage to break into the high value expensive vehicle’s parked in the garage.” I informed the police that I had a ticket and was trying to get my car from the garage. The police informed the security personnel on duty and told the police that he cannot let me in because the garage is only “24 hours for people who works there and my ticket is invalid and told me come back in the morning in the afternoon when there are more WITNESSES??”

Honestly, I would not recommend this “24 hour garage” due to the rent-a-cop that’s believes he has more power than I because he controls the flow of people going in. I had to pay the full price and on top of that. The side of my car is dented and I found my human droppings in my car, smudged.

I tried to report it but since it’s was “after hours”; they are not held responsible for it and cannot show the...

When I heard about The Dairy Block, and how it was going to use an alley in downtown Denver, I wanted to check it out, and I finally did.

The concept of the Dairy Block is a very good one, where an alley is changed into usable space, instead of just sitting there, exposed to the elements, and whatever else.

The stores located along the Dairy Block, have two entrances, which is a good concept. People may enter the stores from the street, or from the alley, or the Dairy Block. This gives a greater "presence" to each store along/in the Dairy Block.

The actual Dairy Block alley is lined with square and rectangular gray colored tiles. There are the fun overhead lights, strung across back and forth in the alley, which I would love to see on at night, I bet it's pretty.

There is a LARGE milk jug, with milk spilling out of it at one of the entrances, but you need to see this yourself. Different planters full of flowers, and benches to sit and enjoy an ice cream cone, run along each side of the Dairy Block, or alley. It's comfortable, clean, and welcoming.

Along one of the sides of the alley, there are plaques with sayings on them, such as: "You are cleverly disguised as a responsible adult."

There are also two Musical Churns, one on each end, which I simply loved. I wish I had made a video of each of them. Guess I'll have to do that next time I'm down there.

There are (I don't know how many) restaurants located in and along the Dairy Block. The one market area is called the "Milk Market." This is where you can purchase such food items as ice cream, scones, hamburgers, and more. My husband and I enjoyed the Milk Market. Yes, it's loud in there, but we really liked it.

Parking, well, parking is along the street (not in the Dairy Block), and walk to the Dairy Block.

It was fun to visit the Dairy Block. We will be going back, as we enjoyed the concept, and approve of what the city and developer did with the space. I for one, hope there are more "Dairy Blocks" to come in the Denver area. It's a very good idea. Won't you go see...
