Around Baseline Sub
The north side of the neighborhood contains the CU Boulder East Campus, and university culture has a big influence on the area. The National Solar Observatory, Potts Field, and the Sustainability, Energy and Environment Complex are all located in Baseline Sub. South of Colorado Avenue, however, the neighborhood is more residential with lots of one-story homes and condominiums. Cyclists are frequently seen in the area, which is linked to Boulder's extensive bike network. Residents can bike from one corner to the next on a combination of bike lanes and multi-use paved paths that follow Boulder Creek and Bear Creek.
College towns love a good happy hour, especially at a local pub. Dark Horse on Baseline Road is a quirky evening hangout popular with both students and a local crowd who have frequented the bar for years. Decorated with colorful movie props, this unique saloon has a timeless appeal and has anchored the neighborhood's nightlife since 1975. Residents might also head west to University Hill or Downtown Boulder for a wider selection of bars. To the north, Century Theatre at 29th Street is the place to see first-run blockbusters and foreign films.
Boulder embraces the outdoors year-round. The parks and bike corridors around Baseline Sub make it easy to enjoy time outside without a big trip to the mountains.

A leisurely walk around the neighborhood is just as rewarding. You'll have to venture downtown to find a wider variety of sit-down restaurants and local shops, but the area does have great parks. Scott Carpenter Park includes a pool, skate park, athletic fields, and a playground.
Baseline Sub is an increasingly popular place to live as neighborhoods near the foothills become more expensive.

Many residents here get around by car, especially within the cluster of single-family homes south of Colorado Avenue. Boulder and Denver's local, non-profit car-share program has three stations in Borderline Sub. The community is equally fortunate to have access to the trails along Boulder Creek and Bear Creek, which tie together the neighborhood for residents and visitors.
