At the time, Suggs Homes was considered one of the most reputable builders in the Valley. Standard features that came with Suggs Homes include: all copper plumbing, steel reinforced foundation, reinforced concrete floors with steel mesh, exterior walls insulated with foil back sheet rock, etc. Be sure to check out in the documents tab a copy of the original Suggs Homes sales brochure which shows a detailed list of all the standard features from the builder.

The Holdeman Neighborhood is part of the greater NW Tempe Neighborhoods Heritage District. The neighborhoods within this area have enjoyed a resurgence in recent years as owning an authentic mid-century ranch home coupled with the close proximity to Downtown Tempe has become increasingly desirable. Moreover, the newly redesigned Hardy Drive and University Drive streetscape projects that were completed in 2015 have really transformed the area. There are current plans for another future streetscape project for Broadway Road, between Priest Drive and Mill Ave. As part of the City's Broadway Corridor Revitalization Plan, this section of Broadway Road will undergo a major restoration. This may include new bicycle lanes, larger sidewalks, more shade trees, and new street medians with public art. The area is also be branded the "Tempe Maker District" to help encourage future developments within the Broadway Corridor with an emphasis on attracting local Tempe-based businesses. Given that the Holdeman Neighborhood is located adjacent to Broadway Road, between Priest Drive and Hardy Dr, this would be a boon to the community. All in all, the Holdeman Neighborhood is shaping up to be one of the most desirable locations in all of Tempe!
