While originally known as Capitol Heights, Congress Park neighborhood has been used by the city of Denver since the 1970s.
Between 1880 and 1890 Denver's population grew from 35,000 to over 100,000. Improvements in transportation such as cable cars made the eastern sections of the City more accessible to the middle class. Congress Park was platted into more than ten subdivisions in the late 1880s.
The Congress Park neighborhood includes a large section of East Seventh Avenue Parkway, along which runs Denver's largest historic district, the 7th Avenue Historic District.
