"Dr. Alan Villavicencio is overseeing some major surgery on a Boulder County landmark. The neurosurgeon is restoring the 82-year-old Cito barn along Colo. 52, just east of 79th Street. He purchased the wooden building — well-known for the American flag painted on its east wall — from the county.
Villavicencio agreed to put at least $100,000 into the historic structure's restoration. The flag disappeared earlier this month when a new coat of white paint went on, but Villavicencio promises it will be back soon. "We're going to paint it on the Fourth of July," Villavicencio said this week.
The exact coordinates of the flag were recorded, so it will look exactly the same as the previous image that went up during the Persian Gulf War. The painted flag long has been a popular subject for photographers. "People ask about it," Villavicencio said of the flag. "A couple people were very concerned" when it was painted over."
