About Creekside
Creekside is located on the south end of Longmont, between Main and 95th Streets. Left Hand Creek, which flows from the St. Vrain River, borders the neighborhood. Left Hand Creek Park, adjacent to Left Hand Creek, features a picnic area, playground and playing fields. The park also links up to the Left Hand Creek Greenway bike and walking paths.
This neighborhood features excellent schools (Burlington Elementary, Sunset Middle and Niwot High School), and is just minutes from shopping and the quaint town of Niwot.
According to the City of Longmont, the first homes were built in this area in the early 1990s. However its roots go back to the 1860s, when settlers built homes along the creek.
Creekside also borders Prospect, Colorado's first "New Urbanist" community, where you can shop at the hip boutiques, stroll the town center and get some of the best BBQ in the area.
