Death by Light Rail











Bennett's Bar-B-Que served delicious barbeque at 37 & Peoria for 25 years.  But the new Peoria Street overpass was built to accommodate the light rail and old Peoria became a frontage road that was very difficult to access.  The restaurant closed about June 2015 and its main use now is as a parking lot for buses.   A new Bennett's BBQ opened on Arapahoe Road at Quebec St.

Light Rail is supposed to make Denver boom.  But it has also killed off some once-thriving businesses.
