You can pretty much go anywhere from Union Station. When coming from the airport, you can take the A-line directly from the terminal to here. You can also take it back to the airport when you leave. There is also an underground bus station that will take you everywhere in Colorado. Just get on google maps and select public transportation. It will show you your options.

Essentials

Whole foods is just too easy. It is just across the street. If you are feeling lazy, just go over to their fresh food bar and get a meal. It is always good. It's my go-to when I want to stay in and watch a movie.
