RTD Light Rail Evans Station 1 1
#overland The light rail and bus transfer hub for the area. I also offers a small Park and Ride Lot. The station sits directly under the Evans Street Bridge. It's very convenient for light rail. But I do find waiting for a bus after dark kind of dicey, there is little traffic or security and only one way out of the area. Other than that, it is convenient at most other times.

Allgolf Overland Golf Course 1 1
#overland I was told when I stopped by that this is the oldest golf course West of the Mississippi River. I cannot confirm that, but it does say on the sign entering the place, that it was founded in 1895. The course is mostly flat, so not a lost of strenuous hill climbs.

Breakfast King 1 1
#overland The Breakfast King is basically a greasy spoon type restaurant. It serves basic diner food. The last time I was there, the waitress said "we need to evacuate the building. We have a kitchen emergency and the fire department is on the way. Before you leave, pay your bill." I never got to eat my grilled cheese, but they expected me to pay my bill.

Bill's Sports Collectibles 1 1
#overland Bill's once occupied just a store front shop, now it occupies the whole building. If you are a sports fan, or know a sports fan this is a MUST see. Inside you will find every imaginable, and some unimaginable, sports memorabilia anywhere. This is more like a museum, but you can buy stuff.
