This one took me aback when GMaps dropped me into heavily urbanized Denver (well, to be precise, Berkley). A trip into the topos explains all: this spot was always, more or less, in the city, but when they realigned the yards/etc. in the late 1950s, they labelled the western end of the yard leads "Zuni". Before then, the name doesn't appear on the map. At present it is, coincidentally, the location of the Clear Creek/Federal station on the RTD, but I don't see a redirect as pointful.

• Delete I remain utterly baffled what induces people to create articles without bothering to do a smidgeon of research into their worthless copy-and-paste junk. It appeared between 1950 and 1958, with no evidence for the claim that it's a community. Here and here are the sources showing Zuni was a switch point ahead of the Utah Junction rail yard. Please if you cannot write something unique with significant coverage do not create the article! Even if the GNIS classification is not in error, not every named cluster of buildings is an independently notable place! Reywas92^Talk 22:32, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete It's a railroad switch behind A&M Motorsports that not even A&M Motorsports knows about probably.
