No vacancy: DNC may displace Denver homeless
Convention-goers in search of lodging at next week's Democratic National Convention may inadvertently squeeze homeless people out of temporary motel rooms.
Homeless families in Denver often board in the city's most iconic and dilapidated motels along Colfax Avenue, Broadway and Colorado Boulevard when the shelters are full.

Denver's homeless officials worry that some families will be left to stay on the streets.
