Officials tell CBS4 they are creating a social media campaign to help celebrate the business' 37 years in the community.

For decades, The Market has "served as the quintessential meeting place for dignitaries, students, artists, businessmen, professionals and locals alike."

Owners boast being the first espresso bar between New York and Los Angeles "before it became trendy."

Dana Crawford, a household name in Denver, sold the business to two brothers from New Jersey, Gary and Mark Greenberg, in 1983. Gary passed away in 2000.
