Willo Home Tour – Sunday, February 13th

Once a year, the Willo Historic District invites residents and Valley visitors to have an inside look at some of the unique homes that make up the neighborhood.  Willo is Phoenix’s largest historic district consisting of over 900 homes.  Willo is bordered north to south by Thomas and McDowell, and east to west by 1st Avenue and 7th Avenue.

The Willo Historic Home Tour and Street Fair has something for everyone.  Each year approximately a dozen architecturally significant homes and the historic firehouse are open to the public for an inside look.  The homes range in style from Tudor to Spanish Revival, Bungalow and Ranch and were built from the 1920s through the 1940s.  Ticket sales and the street fair are centered around Walton Park in the heart of Willo, where Holly and Monte Vista intersect at Third Avenue.  The street fair offers 100 vendors selling food, jewelry, arts and crafts.

Coronado Home & Garden Tour – Sunday, March 6th

After several years of mixing it up in Coronado by featuring modern spaces, Brentwood Tudors, and an evening home tour, Coronado steps back to feature what Coronado may be best known:  Bungalow homes on a Sunday afternoon.

Plan to spend Sunday March 6th on Mitchell Street in Phoenix visiting a dozen charming Bungalow style homes and some equally charming gardens, coveting the classic cars that will be gathered along Mitchell, and meeting some of the nicest neighbors in the Coronado Historic District. Enjoy a wine tasting at 12th Street & Oak while you’re here and plan to end your day at one of Coronado’s renowned restaurants.

Encanto-Palmcroft Home Tour – Sunday, March 27th

Home Tour Day is a great day to get out of the house and see how other people live — specifically those in one of the most talked about historic neighborhoods in Arizona.  You will want to park at Phoenix College where you’ll will want to buy your tickets and a refreshment. We will then whisk you off to the neighborhood in an old-fashioned trolley while a tour guide gives you a fascinating commentary on the history of the neighborhood.

You’ll be dropped off within a short distance of your first house. Your ticket will provide information about each specific house, its history, famous people who may have lived in it, interesting architectural features, and more.
