Phoenix AZ has many wonderful historic homes and neighborhoods. In all, Phoenix is home to 35 designated historic districts. Each historic home district has opportunities for home buyers and owners including various architectural styles, nearby restaurants and shopping, walkability, proximity to the metro light rail as well as the downtown and north central Phoenix lifestyle.
Since each historic district is unique and individual, the Urban Team spends hours walking and studying the various historic homes and neighborhoods to help our home buying clients and historic home sellers. We believe that being up-to-date and knowledgeable about the homes in downtown and north central Phoenix is why people hire us to represent them.
Below we have a list of the 35 historic districts that have been designated by the Phoenix historic preservation office. We have written many essays looking at the history of the historic neighborhoods, the various historic homes, the architectural styles represented, pictures of historic Phoenix homes and video tours of the various historic historic neighborhoods. This is an ongoing project for your Urban Connection team as we research the history of the districts, talk to home owners, take pictures, write articles and try to give you a real feel of Phoenix’s wonderful historic districts. We hope the information is enjoyable and helpful.
