The Riverside Cemetery is on Brighton Blvd at York
St, Denver, CO 80259 (barely) in Adams County. Established in
1876 to replace the dilapidated 1859 Denver City Cemetery,
Riverside is Denver's oldest active cemetery and features
ornate monuments honoring Denver's leading citizens. Two
prime examples are the Lester
Drake log cabin by stone cutter/artist
M. Rauh and the N.
Addison Baker life-size horse erected by
his daughter because "He loved horses more than his own
blood kin." The cemetery also features some
lovely pieces of funeral art like this crucifix
(back
view). In an attempt to
preserve the beauty and historic value of the cemetery it was
designated a National Historic District in 1994.
