East Colfax Avenue runs a 1/2 block from my house. It has a reputation and works hard to keep it. At 26 miles in length, it is reported to be the longest main st in America. Denver, CO.

East Colfax Avenue Opposition on the east side of town Sirens left over from the night before Donut cops with nowhere to go Follow dead leads to a dead end street Tinted windows roll down a crack Money and something passed in and out Baby cries from a second floor window The sun sets and East Colfax lights up 2011 © Dayvid Graybill
