We later joined Rockwood

Here are a couple of possibilities for the location. Today's M-291 runs up the middle, Salisbury is near the top. There appears to be construction at Salisbury & Lacy. Another possible site is SE of M-291 & Salisbury, in what would late be the Arrow Rock Subdivision.

Here is a view as of March 27.

If those places are three stories, ouch!

The detached garages would be another drawback.

The housing market here in the Denver area has gone wild. If those units were offered here, they would all be sold within a day of the announcement and with people outbidding each other above the asking price. I was told that the market here has been fueled by people who want legal access to pot.

No, if those were constructed in 1963, the $250,000 price would have been $32,125. My first house cost $41,000 in 1975, chuckle.
