Some people were still manning the streets around Civic Center Park this week. They blame corporate greed for the nation's economic problems. The movement started on Wall Street in New York City.
Nearly 50 people have been arrested since Oct. 14. Most of them were arrested for refusing to leave the park after it was closed.
Protesters in Denver have been avoiding the no-camping ban by sleeping on the sidewalk.
