Most of those metros are located in the Midwest, East Coast,…

Homebuyers and sellers in metro Denver alike pulled back in July as the summer slump showed up on schedule.

Home and condo sales in metro Denver fell 6.2 percent between June and July, and sales were down 2.5 percent year-over-year, according to a monthly update from the Denver Metro Association of Realtors.

Sales between June and July typically drop 5 percent, and this year’s decline was close to that. Last summer, sales dropped 15.6 percent in July, a severe reversal that stretched into the fall and winter.

Sellers listed 4,695 single-family homes for sale in July compared to 5,463 the month before. Condo listings dropped to 1,937 in July from 2,150 the month before.

That contributed to a 1.7 percent decline in the number of active listings in July compared to June, the first month-over-month drop in six months. Active listings in metro Denver rise an average of 3.5 percent between those two months.

The Lakewood mainstay opened in 1961. Founder Dino DiPaolo and his wife Jeannene established a menu of pizza, sandwiches and pasta that has gone largely unchanged (save for the addition of some Mexican fare at lunchtime) through 11 presidential administrations. Just about all the ingredients, from the pasta to the bread to the Italian dressing, are still made in house. Stick around for a piece of scratch-made pie or homemade ice cream for dessert.

As the closings of storied restaurants like Patty’s Inn and White Fence Farm in recent years have demonstrated, Denver’s dining scene is in a period of transition. It seems like a new hotspot opens every other week, but many longtimers, the places dine..
