"Although the Table Mesa subdivision of Boulder is one of the newer additions to the city, its growth as a community within the community has been striking. …"
"A house which takes advantage of the special beauty of the area is one on Vassar Drive, one of several designed by George H. Holdrege. Built on a ridge, one of the highest points in the subdivision, it overlooks a valley and beyond that another ridge with houses along the top - all against the backdrop of the mountain range. Because of the steep descent behind the house, basement rooms open onto a terrace below the level of the front of the house. Here, where the hill falls away to the valley, the ground has been reinforced with retaining walls of rock."
