Back On Track

The beloved train to the top of Pikes Peak reopens this month— right on schedule.

CoMPASS

All the best trains arrive on time. Still, when the Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway closed for renovations in spring 2018 and the owners set a hard deadline for reopening, punctuality seemed implausible. The goal? May 2021, a month before the icon—the train has carried visitors up the 14,115-foot mountain since 1891—celebrates its 130th birthday. Workers would have just three years to demolish and rebuild nine miles of track that gain 7,795 feet in elevation as they wind from the Manitou Springs depot to the summit. And because the slope couldn’t always support machinery, they’d have to do much of the labor by hand. “It was backbreaking work, then and now,” says general manager Spencer Wren. Today’s crew had an advantage: The railway is in billionaire Philip Anschutz’s portfolio, and the Anschutz organization invested $100 million in new track and refurbishing the historic train cars and the depot. The city of Colorado Springs rebuilt the summit’s visitor center, too, adding an outdoor dining terrace and exhibits detailing the peak’s history, geography, and conservation initiatives. Yet when tourists board the train again on May 1, they’ll be treated to the same views over Colorado—proving some things are timeless. —NOELLA WILLIAMS M AY 2 0 2 1

CULTURE

WOKENINGS

The killing of George Floyd in May 2020 prompted many local arts organizations to express solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement, but whether those promises translated to lasting change, only time would tell. One year later, we contacted some of Denver’s cultural gatekeepers to find out if their actions matched their words.

WHO SAID IT

WHAT IT SAID

WHAT IT DID

WHY IT MATTERS

DENVER ARTS & VENUES

The organization, which manages cityand county-owned arts facilities and cultural initiatives, such as the Denver Public Art program, vowed it was “committed to living values of equity, inclusion, access, and justice, and we believe arts and culture can be at the center of social change.”

In June, DAV and the city co-commissioned the Black Lives Matter mural on Broadway. That September, it also increased the proportion of seats on its grant-making and public-art selection panels from at least 50 percent to a majority representing historically marginalized communities, including individuals of color, people with disabilities, and those who identify as LGBTQ.

The mural had an outsize impact on participating artists. “It changed the way I speak,” says Adri Norris, who led the project with Pat Milbery. ”I’m comfortable with calling things as I see them. I talk about racial and gender inequality and experiencing them simultaneously.”

TATTERED COVER BOOK STORE

On June 6, Tattered Cover’s then-owners explained they had not voiced support for the BLM movement because it was “not for us to determine which ideas in the pages on our shelves are valid and which are not.” Two days later, after a wave of backlash, they backtracked, stating, “We understand that trust has been broken, and that we have a long road ahead of us to repair that trust.” They sold the company in December.

The new ownership group has continued diversitytraining initiatives started under its predecessor and launched a partnership with Clara Villarosa, who founded Denver’s first Black-owned bookstore. Villarosa’s Hue-Man Experience at Tattered Cover will curate shelves to ensure Black authors and perspectives are represented, make recommendations, and consult organizations seeking diverse literature.

“For a very long time, [institutions] lived under a veil in which they believed that whatever issues there were, were on the margins, and they weren’t contributors to those issues,” says Viniyanka Prasad, founder of The Word, A Storytelling Sanctuary, a Denver-based nonprofit that promotes publishers and writers from underserved and diverse backgrounds. ”Now they realize that failing to make equity and justice a priority contributes to the problem.”

The ballet pledged it would “reexamine all operations of the organization to identify ways in which Colorado Ballet can improve opportunities, policies and training to ensure a fair and equitable future for all.”

Artistic director Gil Boggs noted that dancers of color comprise one-third of the company, but no Black Coloradans serve on the nonprofit’s leadership or board of trustees. “Honestly,” he says, “finding board members of color is not the easiest for a lot of arts organizations.” Following its March 5 interview with 5280, Colorado Ballet’s executive committee met to discuss how to further its search for diverse trustees.

“There’s a bit of resistance, not from a bad place, but [board members] get defensive and try to justify and make excuses and say, ‘Well, we have a multicultural company. We’re fine,’” says Fernanda Oliveira, a former Colorado Ballet dancer. ”They don’t realize the issue is bigger than individual thoughts about race, but once they do, then we can look forward to a more inclusive industry. ”

PROFILE

Honor Guard

On November 23, 1984, 30 North Korean soldiers charged into the demilitarized zone in pursuit of a Russian defector. As bullets sliced through the air, Army private Mark DeVille and his squad leaders, there to secure the border, faced open fire to save the defector and surround the enemy. For his bravery, DeVille received the Silver Star Medal—an honor he didn’t know about until visiting the Hall of Valor website in 2013. “I thought it was a mistake,” DeVille says. “So I called Doug.” A 71-year-old Vietnam War veteran living in Pueblo, Doug Sterner created the database—originally housed on a website called Home of Heroes, it was renamed Hall of Valor when the Military Times began hosting it in 2008—to document every U.S. service member since the Civil War to earn an award above the Bronze Star Medal, the seventh-most-distinguished military medal. Sterner’s mission began in 1994 when his wife, Pam, invited two Medal of Honor recipients from Pueblo back home to attend a Fourth of July festival. Curious, Sterner went looking for more information about the guests, but found that little was publicly Top right: Sterner available. “It felt,” he says, “like a piece of history was forgotten.” in Vietnam

20 5 2 8 0

M AY 2 0 2 1

Since then, Sterner—a property manager until Military Times paid him to research full time—has combed through thousands of papers in the National Archives, Navy Yard, and other military offices to record roughly 300,000 honorees on the Hall of Valor. He believes up to 150,000 are still due their recognition. The exhaustive archive has become a powerful weapon against “stolen valor,” when people lie about their military service. Even the FBI turns to Sterner’s database to identify people who run afoul of the 2013 Stolen Valor Act, a federal law cowritten by Pam that makes it illegal to fraudulently claim military decoration in pursuit of financial gain. But for Sterner, uncovering fraud is an annoying detour. “It’s not exciting,” he says. “It’s, ‘Oh no, here’s another idiot who’s going to take up valuable time that I could be writing the story of a real hero.’ ” Like DeVille’s story: He never received word of his award because, by the time the Department of Defense bestowed it in 2000, the agency couldn’t find the retired soldier due to a clerical error. After learning of his Silver Star, DeVille traveled to the Pentagon in 2014 to receive it. “I like to joke that they could’ve just mailed it to me,” DeVille says. “But truthfully, it meant a lot to reunite with the men I fought with. That wouldn’t have happened without Doug.” —ANGELA UFHEIL

BUSINESS INSIDE JOBS

Some economists are predicting a vaccine-driven hiring spree this spring. With that in mind, here are Carr and Celmer’s top five tips for your next job search.

1 BRAG

“A lot of people don’t want to look conceited,” Celmer says, “but that’s the wrong risk to be worried about. Celebrate your achievements, because if you don’t, who will?”

2 BE SPECIFIC

In 2018, when a friend first told Jen Magnuson about Basecamp, a Facebook group for outdoorsy folks looking for outdoorsy jobs, she didn’t put too much stock in it. The Mancos local was heading into her second year as an adventure photographer and figured joining might lead to a few freelance gigs—but it led to a lot more than that. From how to time her pitches to companies’ marketing calendars to the importance of understanding each potential client’s specific brand of outdoorsiness, Basecamp helped pull back the curtain on a notoriously opaque industry. “The industry can come off as a club that you have to know someone to get in,” says Ali Carr, a Tahoe, California–based content consultant and outdoor journalist who used her Rolodex from her time as an Outside magazine editor to start Basecamp four years ago. “So I wanted to make the group an open door.” The response was palpable, and the Facebook group rocketed from around 200 members when it launched in 2017 to more than 20,000 earlier this year. (It’s still private, but anyone can join.) Realizing their passion project was outgrowing its social media roots, Carr and co-founder Jenna Celmer, a brand strategist and consultant in Colorado Springs, saw an opportunity to turn it into something more. They’ve expanded Basecamp’s door-busting tools to include weekly discussion panels with industry insiders; newsletters with curated job postings (companies pay to advertise), event roundups, gear giveaways, and career advice; and the Outdoor Dream Jobs podcast, in which the duo interviews executives and hiring managers from major players like GearJunkie, Patagonia, and the North Face about their openings and ideal candidates. Now all their hard work has culminated in a website: wearetheoutdoorindustry.com. Launched earlier this spring, the site is a hub for all those services, with plans for paid products like classes, speaker series, networking cohorts, and whatever else they can dream up. But everything they do will have one goal: being a resource for everyone who doesn’t have access to the more traditional routes into the industry. “When you see these opportunities churning,” Carr says, “it gives you hope that something perfect for you is going to come through.” —NICHOLAS HUNT

Ali Carr and Jenna Celmer have made it their goal to help you land a dream gig in the outdoor industry.

3 KEEP A WINNING RECORD Concrete examples of your skills are essential for a good cover letter, but they’re easy to forget. “Keeping an ongoing list of your achievements means you won’t have to remember later,” Celmer says. Then simply tailor your cover letter with the best examples for each opening.

4 LIVE YOUR VALUES

“Patagonia, for example, wants to know how active their candidates are in terms of environmental justice. It’s almost more important to them than a candidate’s skills,” Carr says. Volunteering is a great option because it looks good on a resumé, helps your community, and it’s a great chance to network.

5 ASK FOR IT

“Mentors are a cheat code for your career. They’ve done what you want to do and know all the pitfalls along the way,” Celmer says. Don’t be afraid to aim high. “I’ve asked people with crazy titles to mentor me, and they’ve all said yes because no one had asked them before.”

I L L U S T R AT I O N BY M I C H A E L WA R A K S A

On The Hunt

“A lot of people say, ‘I can do anything and will move anywhere,’ but that’s the least helpful thing you can do,” Carr says. “There’s a perfect candidate for every opening, so finding a job where that’s you will save you a lot of time versus applying to things you’re open to on a generic level.”

HEALTH

ABOUT FACE

Air pollution has ruined a lot for Denverites—warming the globe, triggering asthma, and forcing us to exercise on a treadmill (gag) during ozone alerts. So when we learned that pollutants like vehicle exhaust and forest fire debris can cause skin irritation, wrinkles, and discoloration, we asked the experts how to stop the brown cloud from destroying our beauty, too. —AU

MORNING

RAISE THE DEFENSES Skin is a multilayered organ, says Centennial dermatologist Dr. Maura Caufield. The outermost part, the epidermis, acts somewhat like a bouncer, warding off outsiders. Next comes the dermis, where collagen and lipids—which keep your skin firm yet elastic—party. Pollutants introduce free radicals, unstable molecules that compromise cellular function (incapacitating the bouncer and storming Club Dermis). Prevent the invasion by applying vitamin C, an antioxidant that fights free radicals and ultraviolet rays. LIGHT FIGHTER Ultraviolet rays burn your skin and weaken its defenses. Dr. Mona Sadeghpour, a dermatologist in Lone Tree, recommends using a broad-spectrum, SPF 30-plus sunscreen with physical sun blockers like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide—even if you have dark skin. “Skin with more melanin doesn’t always burn as quickly, but you risk dark patches called hyperpigmentation, as well as cancer,” Sadeghpour says. Tinted sunscreen can prevent the less-than-chic white cast some options leave behind.

EVENING

WASH THE DAY AWAY Tiny particles like wildfire debris and construction site dust can coat your face, so Caufield recommends beginning your evening routine with a cleanser, a gentle alternative to soap. To avoid stripping away your moisture barrier—the outermost layer of the epidermis that helps retain water so you don’t get flaky and itchy—Caufield likes noncomedogenic (easy-on-pores) cleansers with moisturizing ingredients like glycerin.

GREAT BARRIER RELIEF Seal in vitamins A and B3 with a moisturizer, which prevents Colorado’s dry climate from sucking water from your skin and leaving you prone to flakiness.

FIRST AID KIT Mistakes (like forgotten sunscreen) happen, allowing free radicals in. The resulting damage, called oxidative stress, causes symptoms like spots, wrinkles, and dullness. Luckily, vitamin A (retinol) can help your skin recover. “It speeds skin cell turnover, so damaged cells fall away faster,” says Alexis Mayne, a biologist and special projects manager at Louisville skincare company Sanitas. She also likes niacinamide (vitamin B3). “It gives cells the energy to divide, minimizing dark spots and soothing redness.”

Dessert takes many forms at the new Miette et Chocolat shop and gallery on East Colfax Avenue. When Argentine chocolatier Gonzalo “Gonzo” Jimenez runs ultramarathons, which he does often, he hallucinates. During a 206-mile race around Lake Tahoe in 2019, he began “seeing” bears all around him at about mile 43, but that didn’t bother him; he leaned into the visions, drawing inspiration for the confections, pastries, and edible artwork he creates for his five-year-old bean-to-bar brand, Miette et Chocolat (which translates to “crumb and chocolate”). You can see—and taste—the results at Miette’s new Aurora Arts District chocolate shop and gallery, which Jimenez opened with partner David Lewis three months ago. There, you’ll marvel at spectacular chocolate art pieces, as well as Miette’s collection of bonbons, bars, and other candies. Custom essential oils made from the likes of Front Range ponderosa pine needles and other aromatics infuse many of the treats. Other hybrid desserts, including large chocolate unicorns crafted using thermoformed acetate plastic molds, combine Jimenez’s love of art, chemistry, and tech. Choose from Miette’s premade goods or commission Jimenez to create a unique confection or sculpture (starting at $55) just for you—you’ll never look at chocolate the same way again.

Barbecue Blues Denverite Adrian Miller aims to re-establish the story of barbecue to its true origins in his new book, Black Smoke. BY SCOTT MOWBRAY

Barbecue is a beloved exemplar of culinary Americana, but its origin story in the forced labor camps known as Southern plantations has been denatured and whitewashed. It’s a strange truth that while the Black roots of the blues must be known and honored by any serious white music fan, barbecue’s story has been consigned to a vague melting pot rather than the crucible of slavery. I’ve drunk Bud Light with reverential white pilgrims in the last juke joints of Mississippi and Alabama, but I didn’t detect a similar appreciation, in barbecue restaurants there, of the roots of the cooking (nor, I confess, did I have such appreciation myself ). If Black pit masters are now celebrated by the food media, there has not been a full reckoning. The result is, when I last checked, Wikipedia merely says that barbecue is “strongly associated with Southern cooking and culture,” which is like saying the #MeToo movement has its origins in differing perspectives concerning the roles of men and women. This is the sort of editing out of history that Black author and Denver native Adrian Miller aims to correct in his important new book Black Smoke:

also Black. “What I can’t understand,” he wrote in his book American Fried, “is why this town is full of statues of the farmers who came out to steal land from the Indians and full of statues of the businessmen who stole the land from the farmers but doesn’t even have a three-dollar plaque somewhere for Henry Perry.” So much American reality is contained in those barbed lines: Indigenous people replaced by settlers; settlers overwhelmed by big business; and insufficient credit to the people from whom precious things were appropriated. Only in 2020 did Kansas City proclaim July 3 as Henry Perry Day. The first chapter of Black Smoke traces whole-animal fire pit cooking in the Americas to Indigenous peoples, to the barbacoa and carbonado methods of South America, Mexico, the Caribbean, and among native tribes on lands that would ultimately become the United States. Miller argues that it was the commingling of these techniques with the flavor traditions of enslaved Africans that formed the foundation of the wholehog barbecue that became a hallmark of plantation culture. Enslaved people dug the pits and chopped the wood, but also did the cooking, because the pit mastery lay with them. The meat was swabbed with vinegar and spices and, later, tomatoes and sugar. To locate barbecue talent among one’s enslaved population was a point of plantation-owner pride, and the best pit masters were bragged about and shared. It’s all very Gone With the Wind, except that Miller notes the depravity of plantation culture included torturing enslaved people who had been whipped by dousing them with barbecue sauce. In the Jim Crow era, lynchings were called “negro barbecues.” The enslaved held their own barbecues when they could, away from prying eyes and noses, even while on the run or planning rebellion, Miller writes. By the late 19th century, barbecue assumed a great public role, too, and not only in the South. It was central to events called “Emancipation barbecues” and to political rallies where smoked meat was the bribe for votes, a tactic that was once described as “stuffing the ballot.” Pit skills brought economic opportunity to Blacks during Reconstruction and after its shameful collapse, when they set up barbecue shacks in cities across the country to serve both

Black customers and white ones who recognized the superior fare. In many cities, Black barbecue experts were recruited for public events, and sometimes even presented as professionals without caricature, as in a respectful Denver Post article about Columbus B. Hill, who had moved to the Mile High City from Tennessee. In 1890, Hill supervised the barbecuing of over 30,000 pounds of beef, mutton, and veal to mark the laying of the state Capitol’s cornerstone. Barbecue played a powerful role in Black church life, too. Miller devotes a sidebar to Arkansas émigré “Daddy” Bruce Randolph Sr., who was born in 1900, came to Denver in 1960, started a barbecue operation, and became famous for staging huge feedthe-crowd events in the name of Jesus and barbecue fellowship. The city’s Bruce Randolph Avenue was named after him in 1985. Racism persisted everywhere as Jim Crow metastasized across the South. White restaurant owners objectified the Black barbecue style, even as they pushed Black cooks and operators to the margins, using Aunt Jemima–like stereotypes to signal Southern authenticity. Meanwhile, regional styles proliferated, among both Black and white cooks. Texans, of course, felt the need for their own origin story, sniffing that their slow-smoked brisket had German DNA rather than African, but Miller argues that the mainstream Texas barbecue story underplays the role of Black cooks and restaurants. By the time the foodie era arrived in the late 20th century, the barbecue narrative was dominated by several species of “White Boys Who Barbecue,” including Bubbas, hipsters, and high-end chefs. This is not to say that Black-owned restaurants weren’t critical all along. Payne’s Bar-B-Que in Memphis, Stubb’s Bar-B-Q in Austin, Arthur Bryant’s Barbeque in Kansas City,

REVIEW Dreamland Bar-B-Que in Birmingham: All are examples of the countless Black establishments important to local and regional barbecue tradition, and in places where the tradition does not run as deep, such as Denver, restaurants like Boney’s Smokehouse on Champa Street are touchstones. Still, as the meaning of cultural appropriation in this country of meltingpot cookery is hotly debated, the story of America’s barbecue past is far from sorted. Black Smoke scores big by being timely and revelatory. It contains profiles of historical and contemporary barbecue greats, including overlooked women, and more than 20 recipes. But it can be tough going

for a casual foodie reader—not because it’s overly academic (though there are 18 pages of references) but because it lacks the grip and heat of its subject. The most disappointing chapter is one that tries to sum up the Black barbecue aesthetic, in which Miller argues that pronounced char-grill flavors (as opposed to only smoke) are key—which is a good start. But the account quickly devolves into a scattershot menu of dishes without yielding a coherent through line. Miller is far better at making the case that Black cooks were given short shrift by the booming food media, framing the growth of “white craft culture” (think: beer, pickles) as an attempt to make precious the labor of whites by elevating it above Black folk traditions. In the end, defining a Black style of barbecue may not be as essential as correcting the narrative itself, since so much on the barbecue plate is fundamentally Black cooking.

Forward Thinking

Meet the mother-daughter duos behind two long-standing family enterprises at the heart of Denver’s hubs for Asian American culture, community, and commerce.

n a frigid Monday morning in late December, Jolie Noguchi leads me through Pacific Mercantile Co. in Sakura Square, a grocery store her family has owned for nearly 77 years. It’s 7:30 a.m. and the shop’s doors won’t open to customers for another hour and a half. Jolie walks me past refrigerator cases filled with containers of fresh miso and colorful cellophane-wrapped logs of kamaboko (steamed fish cakes). We pass by shelves neatly stacked with a kaleidoscopic array of instant udon, ramen, and yakisoba noodles, wrapped in compact single-serving packages. As we wander, Jolie cheerfully gives me a rundown of the different types of osechi, the foods traditionally eaten during the upcoming Japanese New Year. While Jolie explains the ritual of eating sweet black beans in odd numbers for good luck, her daughter Alyssa, sister-in-law Cindi, and other Pacific Mercantile staff members work to the tune of softly humming fluorescent lights, unboxing packages of dried kombu and nori, glossy rice crackers, and rounds of mochi ( Japanese rice cakes) and tidily arranging them on the shelves. The busy New Year holiday season is the only time Pacific Mercantile carries fresh mochi manufactured by Sacramento-based Japanese confectionery Osaka-Ya, one of hundreds of vendors Jolie’s family has worked with for decades to fill its vast inventory of groceries and gifts. The market sells everything from sushi-grade fish and fresh bok choy to more than 100 types of tea imported from across Asia, not to mention dishware and home decor. Pacific Mercantile, which was established in 1944 by Jolie’s maternal grandfather, George Inai, was first located on Larimer and 20th streets but moved to its current location at 1925 Lawrence Street in 1973, following the initiation of

From left:

Alyssa and Denver’s Skyline Urban Renewal ProjJolie Noguchi ect in 1967. That plan to transform the city’s center resulted in the demolition and partial redevelopment of 27 blocks of Lower Downtown, and in turn, the displacement of many Japanese-owned businesses like Inai’s, a large concentration of which inhabited the area between 19th and 20th streets from Lawrence to Blake. As a result, Japanese American community members founded Sakura Square—a one-block plaza bordered by Larimer, Lawrence, 19th, and 20th streets—as a cultural hub and haven for the businesses that had been forced to relocate. The complex encompasses the 74-year-old Tri-State/Denver Buddhist Temple, 199-unit Tamai Tower Apartments, a garden, and commercial space. Pacific Mercantile was one of Sakura Square’s seven original tenants, and the only one that remains.

BUS I N E S S “There used to be a nine-block radius of Japanese businesses, and now it’s all within one block,” Jolie says. The 62-year-old remembers now-shuttered businesses that once made the area home, like Akebono Restaurant, Mandarin Cafe, 20th Street Cafe, Kyoto Restaurant, and Granada Fish Market. “We were such a tight-knit family,” she says. “When one goes away, it is just heartbreaking.” In 2017, Jolie and her brothers, Kyle and Keith Nagai, took ownership of Pacific Mercantile after their mother, Suzanne, died. That same year, Jolie’s daughter Alyssa left her work in fashion merchandising to help the family navigate the future of the store—which now faces a second redevelopment. ABOUT FOUR MILES SOUTH of Pacific Mercantile, on an unseasonably warm afternoon in mid-January, Mimi Luong is managing a nonstop stream of shoppers at Truong An Gifts. Two customers peruse a display packed with grinning Buddha statues in every shape, size, and color imaginable while Mimi rings up a handful of crimson-andgold Lunar New Year decorations for one patron and fields questions from another about the contents of a box of ginseng tea. Truong An is a 5,800-square-foot shop that holds a maze of wall-to-wall shelves crammed with more than 75,000

statues, plants, trinkets, articles of clothing and jewelry, medicines, herbs, snacks, beauty products, and other items imported from across Asia. Mimi, who runs the business with her mother, Phung (pronounced Fawn), and husband, Michael Ye, moves effortlessly from task to task—the result of working in the gift shop for most of her life. Truong An Gifts is situated within Far East Center on South Federal Boulevard, a red-roofed, timeworn commercial complex built by Mimi’s father, Thanh, and his two brothers, Thong and Neil. In 1975, Thanh and Thong were part of a group of 19 members of the Luong family who escaped the turbulence of postwar Vietnam by moving to Denver, where Neil was living while studying at the University of Colorado Boulder and where Mimi’s great aunt was living. “All of my aunts, uncles, everybody came to Colorado,” she says. “They had to leave everything they had behind. My grandpa owned a bank in Vietnam, so he was really successful. But because the communists were taking over, he had to flee.” After he arrived, Thanh worked as a stocker at King Soopers and eventually saved enough to open two Vietnamese grocery stores in Westwood and Aurora, in 1977 and 1979, respectively. But he and his brothers were deeply homesick, a longing that spurred them to construct a complex of immiFrom left: Phung grant-owned shops, restaurants, and other businesses and Mimi Luong that would remind them of what they left behind. In the early 1980s, they acquired a loan and permission from the city of Denver to develop the plot of land where Far East Center now stands, and which still houses 22 businesses. The Luongs chose the name Far East Center to ensure the complex would represent all Asian countries—not just Vietnam—and hosted its grand opening in 1987. Thanh and Phung, who had her own video and gift shop (an “Asian Blockbuster,” Mimi says) in south Denver, moved their respective businesses into the complex and managed them together. Thanh merged his two stores into what is now known as Little Saigon Market, which the couple eventually sold to new owners. Thong died in the 1994, and Thanh and Neil have retired, leaving the management of the Far East Center property and Truong An Gifts to Phung and Mimi. The women—like Pacific Mercantile’s Jolie and Alyssa Noguchi—are determined to preserve what their family has built. “I feel like the store—and Far East Center itself—is my heart,” Mimi says. “A lot of people buy buildings for investments, but this one started from my parents’ sweat.” THE FAR EAST CENTER and Sakura Square complexes have remained relatively unchanged since their construction, but a significant transition is coming to the latter. In 2017, Sakura Square LLC, the for-profit entity that owns and manages the plaza’s office and retail spaces, parking facilities, and Tamai Tower Apartments, began gradually planning a redevelopment of Sakura Square. (The LLC is owned by the Sakura Foundation, a nonprofit that aims to celebrate Japanese and Japanese American culture and heritage and sustain the TriState/Denver Buddhist Temple.) At press time, Gary Yamashita, CEO of the LLC and executive director of the foundation, could only disclose select details about the project, because plans were still in preliminary stages and had been delayed, in part, by the COVID-19 pan-

demic. He did say the project will include a new Buddhist temple and community center, and when construction on the plaza begins in late 2023 at the earliest, Sakura Square’s current tenants will have to find new homes for at least three years. Jolie doesn’t know where Pacific Mercantile will resettle while Sakura Square is being rebuilt, but she plans to return to and remain in the plaza long term. For her, maintaining the store’s location is about preserving the legacy of her grandfather. Inai immigrated to California from Tokushima, Japan, around the age of 20, eventually owning a grocery store in Sacramento before being imprisoned at an internment camp at the onset of World War II. After the war, Inai and his family joined many other Japanese Americans in moving to Colorado at the invitation of Governor Ralph Carr, who was known for his support of that community in the early 1940s. “Without Governor Carr, we wouldn’t be here,” Jolie says. “He was the only [Western] governor that welcomed Japanese Americans into his state.” In fact, Jolie says, her grandfather credited Carr for helping him start the grocery store—and deterring him from calling it Nippon Market, as Inai had intended. Carr advised that lingering postwar animosity toward people of Japanese descent would be prohibitive to the growth of the new business, and so, instead, Inai named the store Pacific Mercantile, a nod to his connection to the Pacific Coast. A bust of Carr has stood in Sakura Square’s garden since 1976 as a tribute to the governor’s support. Jolie has made peace with the idea of Sakura Square’s impending redevelopment, due in large part to the LLC’s efforts to involve Pacific Mercantile in the planning process and preserve the complex’s status as a cultural and community hub. That was not always the case. “When I first heard, I was scared to death,” she says. “I cried. I was afraid we would lose everything and not be able to carry on our grandfather’s legacy.” Which is yet another reason why she’s relieved to have Alyssa by her side, running the store. Jolie says the 29-year-old, who will one day be a fourth-generation owner of the market, has been an asset to the operation since her grandmother died, particularly with restructuring Suzanne Nagai’s old-fashioned bookkeeping system, hunting for temporary storefront locations, and navigating increased online grocery sales. Says Alyssa: “I can’t give up this 76-year-old business.” WHEN THE PANDEMIC HIT in March 2020, Truong An Gifts closed to in-person shop-

ping, causing a drop in revenue, particularly because Mimi and Phung struggled with online sales without a point-of-sale (POS) system to track transactions. The store’s overwhelming inventory would require at least 75,000 scannable bar codes, making the switch to a POS system painfully timeconsuming; currently, all items are rung up manually on a cash register. Truong An relied on curbside or by-appointment pickups and Facebook Marketplace sales for a couple of months, reopening for in-person shopping in May 2020. To draw in new customers, Mimi launched 2021 Lunar New Year–themed gift boxes filled with decorative items, sweets, and coupons from partnering Asian restaurants, a successful program she plans to continue throughout the year with other wares, like Korean beauty products and Asian snacks. Culture and community are at the heart of Mimi’s plans for the future of Far East Center. For 32 years, the Luong family has hosted Denver’s largest annual Lunar New Year celebration in the complex’s parking lot, an affair that was canceled in 2021, but which Mimi looks forward to reviving. She wants to bring back the popular night market Truong An held with the support of Denver Streets Partnership during the summer of 2019, and the complex’s MidAutumn Festival, too. “We just want to share our culture,” she says. “I want to bring the Asian community together.” At Pacific Mercantile, online sales increased about 20 percent during the spring and summer of 2020, Alyssa says, but most of its regular customers prefer shopping in person, and many insisted on doing so despite the health risks. She’s nervous and excited to move into a fully refurbished space after the redevelopment, and has other plans, too, from revamping the Pacific Mercantile website to downsizing its inventory to focus on Japanese products, emulating the Pacific Northwest grocery chain Uwajimaya. “For my mom and my uncles and family members before them, the store was passed down from the previous generation,” she says. “I’m scared to maybe do it by myself someday or not be as successful. I never want to drive it into the ground.” Jolie isn’t worried about that. “Alyssa’s grandpa and grandma are going to be very proud of her. And I won’t be retiring anytime soon,” says Jolie, who adds that her grandfather and mother worked until the days they died, at age 101 and 89, respectively. “I told my daughter that I’m not going anywhere.” m Patricia Kaowthumrong is 5280’s food editor.

DEN  SBA SANTA BARBARA, CALIFORNIA Via: Southwest Airlines Flight Time: 2 hours, 45 minutes For: Wineries/Distilleries/Breweries If you’ve checked off all the brewery, winery, and distillery tours around metro Denver, try wine tasting by foot in Santa Barbara, an urban winery mecca on the Pacific Ocean. Here’s how we suggest spending the day. 8 a.m. Wake up to the serene ocean hues of the Hideaway Santa Barbara, a quiet, intimate retreat that houses just nine guest rooms and suites. A hot breakfast and fresh cups of java from California-brewed Coastal Peaks Coffee await. 9 a.m. Prep your body for a day of wine tasting with a hike to Inspiration Point. From Tunnel Road, take Tunnel Trail north to Jesusita Trail for a 3.75-mile round-trip excursion past sandstone crags and scrub-filled canyons up 800 feet to panoramic views.

We all could use a vacation.

Noon Refill your tank with a glass of Potek Winery’s biodynamic Demetria Grenache and (if it’s a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday) wagyu smashburgers at Third Window Brewing Co.—both located inside a restored 1904 feed mill east of downtown. 1:15 p.m. Tour Santa Barbara County’s six American Viticultural Areas —in one location—at the Valley Project. You’ll taste how the terroir of each region imparts different flavor profiles. Before you leave, snap a photo in front of the impressive chalkboard map by Los Angeles artist Elkpen.

3 p.m. In the same building complex, Pali Wine Co. is known for its Burgundy, France–inspired Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays; they’re best enjoyed on the patio paired with live music. 4:15 p.m. When locals want to trade their wineglasses for pint glasses, they head to Topa Topa Brewing Co. Pick up a six-pack of Weekender, a summertime-only, low-calorie, low-ABV Hazy IPA, to enjoy another time. 5 p.m. Hungry? Grab a quick bite at Cubaneo, which puts a California spin on Cuban eats, inside Kim’s Service Department, which also houses a brewery and a cocktail bar. After your snack, wander to Grassini Family Vineyards’ tasting room, where you can enjoy some of the region’s best Cabernet Sauvignon. 7 p.m. Following a little downtime at the

DEN  MIA hotel (and a quick nap, perhaps?), dinner awaits at Oku. The waterfront restaurant opened in late 2019 and serves what it calls “California Asian cuisine,” including Santa Barbara’s famous uni (sea urchin). BONUS Pick up a five-piece

truffle flight at Twenty-Four Blackbirds Chocolate. Lavender and spearmint leaves from the local farmers’ market in two of the sweets will surprise your taste buds.

MIAMI, FLORIDA Via: Southwest Airlines Flight Time: 3 hours, 55 minutes For: Art Lovers If you’ve worn out your Denver Art Museum, Clyfford Still Museum, and Museum of Contemporary Art Denver membership cards, shake things up in Miami, home to one of the country’s most diverse art scenes. Check out these four can’t-miss sites. For those seeking immersive art Superblue is a massive (as in, 50,000-square-foot) digital art experience that opened in April. Three shows are currently accessible during timed-entry windows. In “Between Life and Non-Life,” a three-part exhibit by global art collective teamLab, you can interact with digital water particles, see a year’s worth of flowerings in a virtual meadow, and admire “spatial calligraphy.” James Turrell’s installation plays with light and color in ways that make the viewers examine their own perceptions of the space. And world-renowned stage designer Es Devlin transformed multiple floor levels into a maze of mirrors. For fans of mural art If you regularly stroll the alleys of RiNo looking for new artwork or are anticipating the next Babe Walls, the Museum of Graffiti is for you. Situated in the Wynwood neighborhood (home to the street art showcase Wynwood Walls), the venue claims to be the first museum of its kind in the world. It celebrates the history of the art form through 15 outdoor murals and various indoor exhibitions, including a display of work (through May 20) by Lady Pink, a trailblazing street artist from New York City.

For those who want a little bit of everything The Miami Design District encompasses some of the city’s most exciting art institutions— African- and Latin-focused Kerr Gallery and the Institute of Contemporary Art Miami, among them. The area is also home to some of Miami’s top restaurants (Mandolin Aegean Bistro, Michael’s Genuine Food & Drink), various design showrooms, and a dizzying array of high-end retailers (think: Fendi, Dior, and Isabel Marant).

DEN  ANC ANCHORAGE, ALASKA Via: Alaska Airlines (seasonal summer route) Flight Time: 5 hours, 45 minutes For: Getting Out In The Wilderness

The chateau-style Hotel Alyeska, about 55 minutes outside of Anchorage, is the perfect base camp for exploring the trails of the Chugach Mountains (or skiing Alyeska Resort in the winter). BONUS

If you’ve already heli-skied Silverton Mountain and want to discover what other adventures are possible via chopper, sign up for one of these three airlifted excursions based in and around Anchorage.

Prepare for the cold with hats and scarves made from Arctic musk ox wool at Oomingmak Musk Ox Producers’ Co-operative.

socially distanced tours of the neighborhood’s art and architecture are available every other Sunday afternoon to the public.

STAY HERE An infinity rooftop pool and out-the-door access to the beach are certainly worthy amenities, but what art lovers will really appreciate about the Betsy Hotel in South Beach are the curated photography exhibits that line the lobby, staircase, and hallway walls. 56

Alaska Helicopter Tours

 SIGHTSEEING

The only expedient way to reach Katmai National Park and Preserve is by air. The scenic flight with Rust’s Flying Service (five to six hours round trip) is worth it for the chance to see Alaska brown bears in their natural habitat. July is the best time to visit because spawning salmon draw large groups of the mammals to the Brooks River. $995/person MAX ADVENTURE = 

 ALPINE HIKING

Instead of expending energy trekking up a glacier, let Go Hike Alaska fly you to a high-alpine landing zone—the exact location depends on the weather and your experience level—where you’ll spend four hours exploring the tundra on foot. (Roundtrip transportation from Anchorage to the helipad is available.) $599/person

 DOGSLEDDING

Take dogsledding to new heights with Alaska Helicopter Tours. The fun begins once you set down on a glacier’s snowfield and start an hourlong tour during which you can mush your own sled of Iditarod dogs. As if that weren’t enough, there are puppies. (Round-trip transportation from Anchorage is available.) Summer rates starting at $569/person

For people who truly love contemporary art What started as a hobby of Don and Mera Rubell more than 50 years ago has blossomed into one of the most impressive contemporary art collections in the world. The couple amassed so many masterpieces that the Rubell Museum was forced to move to a 100,000-square-foot campus in December 2019. The 7,200piece collection is a who’s who of globe-spanning artists across a variety of mediums, including Yoshitomo Nara, Jeff Koons, and Mickalene Thomas.

THE GREAT ESCAPE

Keokea. Once you reach the town, stay straight to challenge yourself on a hilly (but downsloping) path to the Ulupalakua Ranch Store & Grill. There, about nine and a half miles in, you can brake for burgers before making the return journey.

DEN  OGG MAUI, HAWAII Via: United Airlines Flight Time: 7 hours, 15 minutes For: Triathletes In Training

DAY 4 Active recovery—

If you want to train for your next triathlon or other race (yes, even when you’re on vacation), there’s no better place to do so—and squeeze in some fun—than Maui, site of the 25th annual Xterra World Championship offroad triathlon (October 31).

Play a round of 18 on the Plantation Course in Lahaina, site of the PGA Tour’s annual Sentry Tournament of Champions.

DAY 1 Run training—Running may be a stretch along Keonehe’ehe’e (Sliding Sands) Trail, but the 11-mile (out and back) hike is certain to work your legs and your lungs, even at a walking pace. Located inside Haleakalā National Park, the route takes you down through loose cinder to the floor of the Haleakalā Crater.

DAY 5 Swim training— Work your arm muscles in new ways by signing up for a private surf lesson with Hawaiian Paddle Sports.

DAY 2 Active recovery—Why just drive by the waterfalls

on the famous Hana Highway when you can rappel down them? Rappel Maui offers three- to four-and-a-half-hour guided options; private tours are also available.

DAY 3 Cycling training—Head upcountry and park your car at Harold W Rice Memorial Park. From there, hop on your two-wheeler and follow the Kula Highway toward

DAY 6 Active recovery— Squeeze in some family time by signing up for a round of FootGolf at Kā’anapali Golf Courses; as the name suggests, the nine-hole game is a combination of soccer and golf.

QUICK TRIPS Don’t miss these new(ish) short-haul destinations. Provo, Utah Allegiant Air While You’re There: Of all the cascades in Provo Canyon, Bridal Veil Falls has been named one of the state’s best for its dramatic topography and easy access.

San Luis Obispo, California United Airlines While You’re There: Forage for seaweed along the Central Coast during a private tour with Marley Family Seaweeds, and then enjoy your harvest in a bowl of ramen.

Bozeman, Montana Frontier Airlines While You’re There: Unwind after a day of adventure with a cocktail at Sky Shed, the rooftop bar at the nine-month-old Kimpton Armory Hotel downtown.

DAY 7 Rest day—A welldeserved beach day, shave ice in hand.

From left: Courtesy of Rappel Maui; Jordan Siemens/Getty Images

STAY HERE

Kā’anapali Beach Hotel is anxious to show off what $75 million in upgrades looks like. Come June, you can request a room in the updated south or southeast wings; both feature makamae (“precious gift”) shadowboxes made by the staff. Don’t skip a visit to Huihui. The beachfront restaurant, opening this month, is pulling double-duty as a sailing academy where you can learn a navigation technique called wayfinding. BONUS

Rappel Maui

By volunteering some of your time with Malama Hawaii, you’ll help preserve Maui by working on reforestation, ocean reef preservation, or tree planting for future visits.

Flagstaff, Arizona United Airlines While You’re There: Gaze at the stars from Buffalo Park or the Lowell Observatory. Flagstaff was the first town in the world to be named an International Dark Sky Community.

Chicago, Illinois (O’Hare International Airport) Southwest Airlines While You’re There: See an art exhibit or musical act at the Epiphany Center for the Arts; the former church, built in 1885, transformed into a cultural venue last year.

Banff Sunshine resort

THE GREAT ESCAPE

DEN  YYC CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA Flight Time: 2 hours, 35 minutes For: Winter Road Tripping & Skiing If bouncing between ski resorts sounds like the ideal way to spend a holiday break, pack your gear and hit the trio of mountains known as SkiBig3. (All three are on the Ikon Pass.) The best part: You can drive to each of these Canadian Rockies destinations from Calgary in less time than it takes to navigate the traffic-clogged route between Denver and Vail. Use these tips to help plan your getaway. 1. Want to relax in Calgary for a night? Make time to visit the National Music Centre, which covers more than four centuries of song in Canada, before bunking down at Alt Hotel Calgary East Village. 2. Pull over to snap a photo or two in front of the oversize letters that make up the Banff welcome sign. 3. Park Distillery, inside Banff National Park, is one of just a handful of distilleries in the world that’s located within 58

the borders of a national park. Beyond the flawless craft cocktails, locals fawn over the impressive vegetarian food menu (there are woodsmoked meats, too, for those who aren’t plant-based). 4. Skiing isn’t the only way to pass the hours at tiny Mt. Norquay, your first SkiBig3 stop—the mountain is also home to Alberta’s longest tubing lanes. You should definitely plan on riding the North American chair to the Cliffhouse Bistro. Originally built in the 1950s, the former

tearoom is now the prime spot to sip Banff Ave Brewing Co.’s made-for-the-resort Norquay ’95 Quality Time session ale. 5. On your way to the rooftop hot pools at Moose Hotel & Suites in downtown Banff, make sure to stop at Juniper Bistro for an après cocktail (or fancy confection called the Hot Chocolate Bomb) and an avocado salad with local goat cheese—and a side of panoramic forest views. 6. If ski-in, ski-out is your thing, try the Sunshine Mountain Lodge in the village of 3,358-acre Banff Sunshine, your second SkiBig3 resort.

Nonskiers should sign up for a gondola-assisted snowshoe on top of Standish Mountain. 7. Your SkiBig3 final stop, Lake Louise Ski Resort, was already one of the largest ski areas in North America before it opened West Bowl this past season, adding 480 acres of intermediate to advanced terrain. The slopes are not machine-groomed, meaning there are no set runs, just broad zones for skiers and snowboarders to explore. Warm up with ramen and sushi (yes, really) at Kuma Yama near the gondola. 8. As for where to stay during the northern stretch of your trip, nothing beats the renowned Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise for its iconic views. BONUS Sideshow Gallery in Banff sells an eclectic selection of wares made by area artisans, like polymer clay and resin earrings by Jennifer MW Ceramics and stunning landscapes from photographer Bryan Peters.

GRAND CAYMAN, CAYMAN ISLANDS Via: Cayman Airways (seasonal routes) Flight Time: 4 hours, 30 minutes For: Scuba Diving

Eagle Ray Pass is named for the spotted eagle rays that zoom gracefully past the massive walls making up this north-side dive.

If you’re one of the many scuba divers landlocked in Colorado (the state consistently ranks in the top 10 for new divers certified each year), then the Cayman Islands are already on your radar. We asked Steven P. André, general manager of the Kimpton Seafire Resort & Spa on Grand Cayman, to reveal some of his favorite dive sites. Macabuca is both a dive site and a bar/restaurant (Cracked Conch Macabuca). It’s the best night-dive site on the island. You always see great stuff, from

ZURICH, SWITZERLAND Flight Time: 9 hours, 45 minutes For: Hiking & Backpacking If you spend your long weekends in the backcountry, make the extra effort to get to Liechtenstein. The country is about two hours from Zurich via a train and a bus. It celebrated its 300th birthday in May 2019 with the opening of the 47-mile-long Liechtenstein Trail, an easy to moderate route that traverses all 11 of the country’s municipalities. Here, some highlights of the multiday trek. No part of the trail is more than a 35-minute bus ride from Vaduz, the capital, so you can keep all of your belongings at the ritzy Park Hotel Sonnenhof or have a luggage service move it from place to place. From the south, start with magnificent views of Gutenberg Castle. Built in the High Middle Ages, it is one of five castles that remain standing in the country. The 13th-century village of Triesenberg is the highest in Liechtenstein and affords panoramic views of the Rhine Valley and the surrounding Alps. Return to Vaduz and wind along Museum Mile, a strip that includes the Liechtenstein Museum of Fine Arts, the Postal Museum, and the National Museum, among other must-see venues. 60

Plan to unwind one afternoon at the Prince of Liechtenstein Winery in Vaduz, known for its Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. And, yes, it is actually owned by a royal, Prince Hans-Adam II. You’ll pass roughly 10 farm stands along the route, many of which operate on a paywhat-you-want system. Stock up on plenty of fresh fruits and veggies (such as pears, grapes, and cucumbers), llama and sheep meat, and yogurt, cheese, and milk.

It’s thought that the original Bendern church, located on “church hill,” was built in the sixth century; the current, Gothic-style venue opened in 1481. Make sure to visit Ruggeller Riet, a 220-acre nature reserve that lights up with Siberian irises in late spring and early summer. At Löwen restaurant in Schellenberg, order the locals’ dish: layered cheese dumplings, or Käsknöpfle. If you choose to make your trek longer and end in Malbun, take the Sareis chairlift up Sareiserjoch mountain (elevation: approximately 6,561 feet) to celebrate your significant accomplishment. TIP Download the free Listory app, which details all 12 stages of the hike and shares history lessons throughout your journey; you can even take a peek inside Prince Hans-Adam’s castle—virtually, of course.

year-end review, more people moved into Colorado than moved out, with out-of-staters accounting for just under 20 percent of all moves. We don’t yet know exactly where they all came from, but, anecdotally, real estate agents report an increase in people from California (particularly San Francisco), New York City, Chicago, Texas, and Georgia. Such patterns make sense: “Where $1.3 million in Brooklyn might get you, like, a 500-square-foot apartment, and here $1.3 million gets you a five-bedroom, 4,500-square-foot home in a walkable neighborhood,” says Britt Armstrong, a Realtor with Kentwood Real Estate in Denver, with a laugh, “that’s got to feel like us moving to a chalet in Vail—if that chalet were priced at $350,000.” Nationwide, a survey from Stanford University found that 42 percent of the American labor force was working from home as of June 2020. Major employers like Twitter, Facebook, and Nationwide Insurance extended work-from-home policies indefinitely. Locally, surveys of member businesses by the Colorado Chamber of Commerce reported that 87 percent of respondents allowed employees to work fully or partially from home last summer, the vast majority with plans to continue. Of course, not everyone benefits equally from these new remotework perks.

Which raises uncomfortable questions: What happens when the pandemic ends and life approaches normal again? Will 2020’s homebuyers find themselves marooned in the suburbs or the country, rattling around in oversize houses and wishing they’d stayed near restaurants that don’t have “Corral” or “Factory” in their names? For now, no one can say with any certainty; however, many brokers explain most of their clients weren’t making real estate decisions in a panic. Instead, the pandemic seemed to nudge some homebuyers to make moves they’d already been thinking about. “They came here to escape during COVID, and they stayed,” Telluride’s Patterson says. “They knew they always wanted to—they just needed a trigger.” Many of Armstrong’s clients told her they had done some soul-searching during the initial quarantine period in spring 2020. “Our lifestyles have been so outward for so long,” Armstrong says. “Where are you vacationing, where are you going to dinner, what resort are you skiing?

THE PROCESS

This list is pulled from the 2021 topDentists database, which is created using peer evaluations and includes listings for more than 900 How we come up with dentists and specialists in the Top Dentists list. Colorado. To create its list, topDentists asked dentists and specialists a personal question: “If you had a patient in need of a dentist, which dentist would you refer him or her to?” The nomination pool comprised all active dentists listed online with the American Dental Association as well as with dental academies and societies. (Dentists could also nominate others who may not be on those lists.) Respondents were asked to consider experience, continuing education, manner with patients, use of new techniques and technologies, and physical results. After the responses were compiled, dentists were checked against state dental boards for disciplinary actions to make sure they have active licenses and are in good standing. We realize there are many fine dentists who are not on this list; a dentist’s inclusion is based on the subjective judgments of fellow dentists. For more information, visit usatopdentists.com.

Dr. Esposito is honored to have been chosen by his peers as a 5280 Top Dentist in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Dr. Esposito continues his private practice focusing on superior infection control, sterilization, individualized patient care and compassionate attention to detail. In an era where corporate dentistry has begun to dehumanize the patient-doctor relationship, he strives to exceed the expectations of every patient, every day. As a solo-practitioner, patients rest assured that Dr. Esposito will perform the consultation, the operation and all follow up care. His talented team at the Implant and Oral Surgery Center excel at sterilization and infection control procedures, insurance management and the creation of a safe and comfortable environment for the patient’s oral surgical needs. Dr. Esposito is an expert in wisdom teeth extractions, placement of titanium implants, oral pathology, orthognathic surgery, reconstructive bone grafting and facial trauma reconstruction. Dr. Esposito received his degrees from Cornell University, the University of Connecticut School of Dental Medicine and Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. After receiving his Medical degree from Vanderbilt University, Dr. Esposito received his Board Certification from the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, he is a Diplomate in the International Congress of Implantology and was awarded his Fellowship in the American College of Surgeons. This continued dedication to excellence has benefitted patients throughout his decades in practice. Our successful emergence from the pandemic could not have been achieved without the support of fellow healthcare providers, vendors and hospital staff. Dr. Esposito is grateful for this honor, and the support and trust of his peers in dentistry and medicine.

It provides an ideal balance between art and science, and our desire to attain an amazing career in the healthcare profession where we can utilize our creative skills. Our “boutique” concierge style dentistry is laser-focused on being patient-centered, and providing the highest quality care using cutting-edge technology in an ultra-modern environment. As husband and wife, we share a vision to deliver comprehensive care while helping patients explore and implement dental and facial strategies to help improve their lives. Our ultimate goal is to meet and exceed patients vision of optimal health. Our dedication to dentistry is evident with our consistent engagement in advanced training. From inception, following dental school, we both built our foundation with post-doctoral residencies to grant us a higher level of proficiency and acquire expertise in collaborating with our patient’s physicians to deliver outstanding dental care. Over the last twenty three years, as premium providers of IV “sleep” sedation, oral surgery including implants, and complex dentistry, we have been committed to staying abreast of the latest information and honing our skills through a variety of advanced continuing education training. Our proudest moment came in 2015, becoming the first husband and wife duo to achieve the highest credential as Diplomates and Board Certified Implantologist by the American Board of Oral Implantology/ Implant Dentistry. Our dental philosophy far exceeds traditional general dentistry. By implementing the most current and scientifically proven methods with the ultimate level of competency and experience, we can treat even the most complex dental issues. Whether patients are seeking dentistry as a preventative or needing extensive treatment, our experienced team can help them create “a smile for a lifetime.” While clinical expertise and advanced technology are essential to obtaining superior results, it is our commitment to individualized care that truly sets us apart. We understand the unique needs of our patients, especially those in their golden years. We feel incredibly fortunate and honored that our patients have put their trust in us to not only be a part of their personal healthcare, but also for their family and friends whom they continue to refer to our practice. If you demand the best for your dental needs, we’d like to welcome you to Cherry Creek Dentistry—your new dental home.

We are proud to use the latest orthodontic advances to make sure our patients have the best treatment available. “I love what I do and enjoy lecturing around the world to other orthodontic specialists,” says Dr. Rudman. “I have also invented some of the technologies utilized in orthodontics today and enjoy the unique insight I gain from consulting with leading orthodontic manufacturers.” We were the first office in Denver to treat patients with Acceledent, a scientifically proven technology to shorten treatment by 30 to 40 percent. We are also an Invisalign Elite Provider, a status that is reserved for only the most experienced orthodontists, and we utilize the i-Tero Scanning System for our Invisalign patients, which makes impressions a thing of the past.

Dr. Jeanie Felton started Lowry Pediatric Dental Health in the summer of 2013. Since then, she has enjoyed watching her patients and her practice grow. Laser dentistry and noninvasive dentistry are two types of practices she is known for in the Denver area. Dr. Felton and her team love teaching their patients to take pride in their dental health. They believe in spreading the message about how easy and fun the dentist can be. Their goal is to provide gentle treatment while making it a priority to know her patients and their parents. This helps to ensure good home care becomes an everyday practice. Dental habits are formed at an early age, so getting a child comfortable at the dentist can make a big difference later on in life. Dr. Felton sees children as early as a dental need arises and recommends their initial dental exam by age one or within the first 6 months of the first tooth erupting.

ordeal switched the couple to a “forever home” mindset. Says Meyer: “We got so exhausted that in the middle of the process I looked at my husband and said, ‘I don’t want to do this again in five years, do you?’ ” Steps like these all but eliminate risk to the seller, forcing buyers to gamble with more costs—potentially a lot more. Appraisal gaps became a major concern, says broker Neuhaus. “Bidding wars have been pushing prices up higher than comps,” she says, referring to the other recently sold homes in an area that appraisers use to determine a home’s value. Committing to a price no matter what the appraiser says is a risky move. Say a buyer offers $700,000, but the appraisal deems the house worth only $650,000. Banks would only lend up to $650,000, and buyers would have to come up with $50,000 in cash to cover the difference. For inspections, buyers also often have had to stipulate that they wouldn’t negotiate over anything but major issues. In a buyers’ market, people can often knock the price down or ask sellers to fix things like an aging roof or outdated carpet. Not so in Colorado right now. Tight inventory also has made rent-back agreements a popular way to sweeten the deal. “A lot of sellers are concerned about being homeless,” Neuhaus says, “so they want to have the ability to rent their houses back after closing to locate a replacement home.” And forget about most contingencies in an offer, Moye explains. “In this market, a home sale contingency is definitely not considered,” she says. Though it’s not impossible to land a house with an inspection or appraisal contingency, those stipulations put buyers at a big disadvantage. The ubiquity of cash offers flying around last year added to buyers’ headaches. Shoppers who needed a mortgage (that is, most people) found it difficult to compete, even if they had sterling financial cred. That gave rise to startup lender Accept.inc, a Denverbased company that offers cash up-front so buyers can bring a more attractive offer to the table. The company then services the mortgage instead of a traditional bank. Porter Ergon, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty Urban Elite in Denver, says one of her clients scored a Cory-Merrill house by using Accept.inc. “There were three other offers, and my client matched one that was 16 4

slightly over asking price and ended up winning,” she says. “The listing agent said, ‘Wow, if this is cash, we’re definitely going for it.’ I think it’s awesome, but once the word gets out, it’s going to make things just as challenging. What are buyers going to have to do to be competitive next?” O N L I N E SHOP P ING

When geologist Justin Cardwell, 42, landed a job with Newmont Corporation last spring, he and his wife, Kelly, also 42, had to make a quick move from their home in Oro Valley, Arizona, to the Denver area. That’s a daunting task anytime, but the Cardwells needed housing right as the first pandemic-related lockdowns were slowly easing. Like most people, the Cardwells began their home search online; unlike most, the couple never went analog. Restrictions on travel and home showings were tight that April, and their agent (Kentwood’s Armstrong) advised them they’d have to bid on a home before they’d be allowed inside. They did everything virtually. “We had to make an offer on a house we couldn’t even drive by!” Kelly says. “It was the craziest thing we’d ever done.” The Cardwells used Kentwood’s digital listings to zero in on a three-bedroom in Castle Rock with a “gigantic” yard. Then Armstrong conducted a FaceTime tour for them, and also cruised around the neighborhood to confirm there were parks nearby for their 10-year-old daughter. Armstrong, who handled three sight-unseen deals last year, says, “I’ve never felt so much pressure to be right as I did in those moments.” It was only at the inspection, after putting the house under contract for $435,000, that the family saw its home in person (the contract did include a “COVID-19 clause” that would have allowed them to back out without penalty). Luckily, they liked the place, but, “I don’t ever want to have to buy a home online like that again,” Kelly says. At first, these sorts of virtual buying practices were forced by the state’s COVID-19 restrictions. Transactions all but stopped in mid-March 2020, when real estate agents weren’t initially counted as essential workers. By late March, agents had the go-ahead to return to work, but inperson showings and walk-throughs didn’t ramp up again until mid-April. In the interim, “The world was shut down and we were still getting calls,” Boulder’s Gullette says. “People were prepared to buy even if they couldn’t see the property.” Even as it became easier to see homes in late spring 2020 and beyond, some buyers

still tried to boost their chances of getting a house by bidding before actually visiting. “The experience of purchasing a home in Denver right now is similar to buying something on eBay,” says Daniel Dixon, owner of the Dixon Group at Keller Williams in Centennial. “ ‘Hey, this just hit the market, we’re submitting an offer now, and we’ll see it when we can.’ ” But, he notes, 3D-tour technology has gotten good enough to give buyers a feel for a place, even through a screen. “Writing an offer sight unseen isn’t what it used to be.” D ISP LACEM ENT A ND DA SHED H OP ES

The Denver metro market pushed many a prospective buyer right up to the edge of dejection. Meagan Gillcrist, 33, was one of them. A middle school special education teacher with Denver Public Schools, Gillcrist searched for her first home for seven months. “At first it was really exciting,” she says. “But as the season went on, all the houses just started to go. If there was one [in my price range], it immediately went under contract. It got very discouraging.” The two properties she did manage to bid on had multiple cash offers. “I’m not competing against any of these people,” she says. “It felt completely out of reach.” After a few tears, Gillcrist had decided to quit searching, but her agent convinced her to check out a few last townhouses before hitting pause. Gillcrist liked one of them, a two-bedroom in Arvada, enough to make one more attempt. Although the property attracted around seven other offers, her $306,000 bid won. “My Realtor and I were both shocked I got it,” Gillcrist says. “I’m not sure what the deciding factor was, but she made a teacher plug—saying, ‘This is a strong offer, and she deserves a home.’ I don’t know if [the sellers] had a heart for that.” Gillcrist feels fortunate, but she knows others are struggling the way she was. “There are a lot of people like me, public servants who can’t live in the communities they serve because of the housing prices.” For almost every successful sale in this market, there are five, 10, maybe even 20 disappointed bidders who lost out. Go through the process over and over, as many prospective buyers have, and it doesn’t take long for despair to set in. For a huge percentage of shoppers these days, a decent home feels unattainable—and that’s for higher-income, well-qualified shoppers. The situation has become even more dire for those with lower wages or

credit struggles. And because the more “affordable” options—anywhere from the $400s and $500s in Denver to the $700s and $800s in Louisville to “anything under $1.2 million” in the city of Boulder, according to local brokers—were snapped up the fastest, finding housing has been toughest for those with the least capital. Just as the pandemic has revealed existing inequities in access to health care, it has also exacerbated the gap between the haves and the have-nots in housing. Many of Colorado’s posh resort towns are already far too expensive for the teachers, bus drivers, and nurses who work there to actually live there. The Denver metro area’s soaring prices are pushing the Mile High City hard against that affordability limit now, too. At what point do we become another Seattle or San Francisco? “A young couple trying to buy a single-family home in Denver right now is almost priced out,” Moye says. According to a February 2021 report from mortgage data site hsh.com, a Denver household would have to earn $86,878.76 a year to afford the median home in the city (the ninthleast affordable metro in the United States). Median household earnings are just $68,592 (as of 2019). It’s hard to blame people for wanting to live in Colorado, of course. But the revved-up gentrification amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic is exacerbating housing inequality. “A lot of Black and brown people who are lower income and wanting to buy, they’re forced to continue to rent,” says Monica Askew, an associate broker in Denver. “That is depriving them of the ability to build equity and wealth, and to have that pride of ownership. ” Demand and prices have stayed high in the first part of 2021, and brokers expect that trend to continue, at least for a while. At some point, though, unaffordability will force a slowdown. “This area has some growth to it yet,” says CU’s Billings. “But it’s going to start hitting that threshold where the costs go up [too much]—in congestion, traffic, housing prices.” When that happens, people necessarily look elsewhere: to cheaper properties in places like Erie or Aurora; to smaller nearby metros like Colorado Springs and Cheyenne, Wyoming; and farther afield, to less populated locales, like Montana and Idaho. But right now? People want to live here. The pandemic didn’t change that—it just made the dream even more difficult to achieve. m Elisabeth Kwak-Hefferan is a Montana-based freelance writer; she moved there from Fort Collins in 2018.

TOP PERFORMING

LU X U RY

MARKETS TOP PERFORMERS OF 2020 We studied the top luxury markets to determine which markets exhibited the most strength in 2020. By looking at overall performance and utilizing sales ratios (comparing the average monthly sales to the average monthly inventory), we evaluated each market to see whether they favored buyers, sellers, or were balanced. Our Top 10 list is comprised of markets who achieved the highest sales ratio percentages with an average of 50 or more sales per month. As we looked at these top performers, four new luxury real estate hotspots made our list for a variety of reasons: • • • •

Northern California's East Bay region topped the charts for single-family and attached homes. Colorado Springs, last year’s “A 2019 Market to Watch,” rose faster than predicted. Fairfax County, Virginia saw unprecedented sales of luxury townhomes. Pent-up buyer demand and low inventory levels buoyed King County, Washington’s market.

SALES R AT I O S

Sales ratios are critical to understanding the strength of a real estate market at any given time and can assist buyers and sellers in determining how best to approach their negotiations and what tactics to implement. There are many factors that influence the housing market, including mortgage rates, inflation, employment, financial investment and new businesses, construction, immigration, and the health of local as well as world economies. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic greatly impacted buying patterns, which accounted for many major shifts and new trends. The largest shift was a dramatic surge in demand for many luxury markets, which pushed them from traditionally buyer’s and balanced markets into seller’s markets. SALES RATIOS EXPLAINED The sales ratio percentage reflects the speed at which homes are selling and indicates whether it’s a buyer’s, seller’s, or balanced market. Also known as a ‘list-to-sale ratio,’ it is the percentage of available listings that have sold. A higher sales ratio means a larger portion of the available listings have sold, which would indicate elevated buyer demand and market strength. Seller’s markets tend to usher in overall increases in sales prices and multi-offer environments, allowing the seller greater control over negotiations. Balanced and Buyer’s markets usually see more homes available for sale longer and allow buyers a larger selection of properties as well as stronger negotiating powers. The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing defines market type by sales ratios over a sustained period of time.*

*The sales ratio percentages in this report reflect a time period of 12 months – 1/1/2020 – 12/31/2020.

SPRINGS COLORADO

noting that the luxury price threshold starts at $720,000. “We’ve had this trend for several years now. I don’t foresee this changing anytime soon.”

MILLENNIAL BUYERS AND OUT-OF-STATERS FUEL COLORADO SPRINGS HOUSING SURGE Set against the majestic backdrop of the Rockies just south of Denver, Colorado Springs has exploded in growth over the past decade. This trend continued in 2020. Since June, the region’s housing market surged as out-of-state buyers and millennials took advantage of low interest rates and the work-from-home revolution. Explains Baylee Carter of Coldwell Banker Beyond in Colorado Springs: “Inventory is low, and homeowners can rent out their properties and purchase new ones with the equity gains. I believe more people are holding onto their homes, while we are seeing a new buyer market influence driving up the demand.”

To illustrate the luxury housing boom, Carter points to two statistics. According to the El Paso County MLS, there were over 1,425 single-family homes priced at $720,000+ that sold in 2020, compared to 433 sold in 2019. She attributes this to out-of-state buyers, especially those coming from California, “who are able to sell their home and purchase larger homes in the Colorado Springs area for cash.” The work-from-home factor accelerated this trend, as more people could choose where they want to live. “Densely populated areas are becoming less attractive,” she notes. “Colorado Springs is near Denver, but also offers the outdoor lifestyle that people want.”

Luxury single-family homes appeared to be in especially high demand, as the sales ratio remained consistent throughout 2020. “We are seeing multiple offers on properties, even at the $1.2 million range,” says Carter,
