Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Park Service’s National Register of Historic Places is part of a national program to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect America’s historic and archeological resources.
The city of Denver was named after Kansas territorial governor James W. Denver, even though he never actually visited the area. The name was chosen by early settlers in the area.
