On Changing Denver this month, we have an interview with local historian Amy Zimmer about her new book Lost Denver and her experiences on the Landmark Preservation Commission. She outlines Denver’s fraught relationship with its own past and explains our official process for preserving historic landmarks.

Memory, loss, the value of seeing your past around you: It can be a challenge to take these issues on without slipping down a rabbit hole. You have been warned.

Amy Zimmer’s book is available at many of Denver’s independent booksellers.
