Hannah Connell Barker

Barker lived a great part of her life in a stately home on a large lot in the Highland Lawn subdivision she developed. Ezra Barker purchased the house, located at 800 Arapahoe Avenue and built in 1875, months before he met Hannah Barker in 1877. It is one of the oldest homes in Boulder.

On her death, Barker willed the house to her longtime friend, Mary Davidson, who had lived with Barker in the house for many years and who resided in the house until her death in 1923. During the 20th Century the house had been used as a single family residence and an apartment building. At one time, plans were made to use the Hannah Barker House as a bed and breakfast.

In 2010, the Hannah Barker House was donated to Historic Boulder. Boulder's City Council unanimously designated the Hannah Barker House as an individual landmark on March 17, 2009. The house, which was structurally unstable, was restored by Historic Boulder and sold to a private party in 2016.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2019. Provided by Wikipedia
