What Has Denver Lost? Character, Says This Reader

Lost Denver back in 2014, but he and his publisher had a falling-out over what was actually lost in Denver. So Goodstein moved on to another project before he decided to dive back into the Lost Denver idea. The result is The Denver That Is No More: The Story of the City’s Demolished Landmarks, which was just released. As always, Goodstein hopes that the history he writes will help shape the present and future of this place. “The argument I give and I’ve used it so much it’s a cliché: Grasping the past, we can understand the present, he says. If we can understand the present, we can shape our future.

Phil Goodstein Looks Back at The Denver That Is No More

Back in 2014, Denver historian Phil Goodstein was in talks with a London publisher about putting together a book called Lost Denver, but they had a falling-out over what was actually lost in Denver. So Goodstein pulled out of the project and focused on the first two of three volumes in his history of the Denver Public Schools. After wrapping up the second, he decided to dive back into the Lost Denver idea and write The Denver That Is No More: The Story of the City’s Demolished Landmarks. Through hundreds of photographs, Goodstein offers a straightforward history of the city. “This is what Denver looked like, this is what we destroyed, and this is what we once valued,” he explains.
