 The other founder, Baron Walter von Richthofen, was a German nobleman and uncle to Manfred von Richthofen, the celebrated World War I flying ace known as the 'Red Baron'.The community was originally designed to attract wealthier residents who were turned off by Denver's "400 saloons and forty Market Street bordellos".To this end, homeowners were required to purchase and build on lots that were twice the Denver standard size of 25 feet by 125 feet.
