Directions

If coming from Denver, go north on I-25 and take exit 229 for Lafayette/Brighton. At the stop light on the top of the exit ramp, turn left onto Highway 7, cross over I-25, and then take the first right onto Huron street about 1/8 of a mile from the interstate. If you pass Children's Hospital, which is also on Highway 7, you've gone too far.
