Three Boulder Daily Camera articles from 1977 and 1984, viewed recently at the Carnegie <br />Library for Local History, detailed the difficulties that Frank Hocheder faced as a farmer at that <br />time. These included the problems of declining wheat prices and the deterioration of the soil <br />after decades of farming. In 1981, the property went through a process with the City of <br />Louisville that included annexation to the City. In 1983, the three Hocheder children (Frank, Jr., <br />Josephine and Flora) sold the 80-acre farm to Columbine Homes, Inc. On the same day, <br />Columbine Homes conveyed ownership of 307 Eisenhower back to Frank Hocheder, Jr. <br />Columbine announced its intention to construct 393 new housing units on the remainder of the <br />80 acres. This became the Hunters Ridge subdivision. <br />4 <br />
