One notable trend in cities across America is the rebranding and renaming of older neighborhoods as new, hip portmanteaus. In Denver, what was formerly known as Lower Downtown is now LoDo, while River North has been rebranded as RiNo. We recognize that this trend is hideous, despicable, and distasteful, but we also want our city to stay hip, cool, and relevant. We care deeply about our city's identity and we want to make sure our neighborhood portmanteaus are not dull, dated, or dumb.

For this reason, we are starting a movement to rename some of the areas around Denver's Pepsi Center to NiJo and MiPo, in honor of Denver Nuggets superstar center Nikola Jokic and prodigy forward Michael Porter Junior. NBA experts are predicting that these two basketball phenoms could lead the Nuggets to their first NBA championship. We believe that the renaming of neighborhoods around Pepsi Center to MiPo and NiJo will be a great way to honor our stars and also make the city look woke af.

Please sign our petition to have these portmanteaus become a permanent part of our city map. If we are successful in this, we will also pursue the renaming of nearby Elitch's to MiRa Park or NaMc Gardens. Lastly, we also believe that the nearby Auraria campus could potentially be home to JaMur University.
