The History

Consisting of two separate neighborhoods, Garfield and North Garfield the area extends approximately one square mile and was developed just to the north East of the original Phoenix city limits. Combined, it is one of the largest historic neighborhoods as well as one of the oldest, dating back to the Dennis Addition platted in 1883. The arrival of the streetcar in 1895 spurred growth as workers could commute easily to Phoenix. The streetcar model of development characterized by commercial centers at stops where groceries could be bought and houses oriented within walking distance of the streetcar flourished.

The Architecture

Why Select Garfield

Today Garfield is undergoing revitalization with some contemporary condo projects being built in infill plots and the older beautiful historic homes finally getting the love and care they deserve as homeowners and investors rehabilitate them. This of course is a reflection of the low real estate prices and the neighborhood’s location within walking distance of the new ASU and U of A campus’, all downtown events including Chase Field, Roosevelt Row arts district, the Science and Children’s museum, and some wonderfully diverse restaurants including Pizzeria Bianco, a 5 star establishment whose pizza has been voted the best in the country by Bon Appetite! If you are looking to buy here roll up your sleeves and consult an expert on historic preservation. This is a neighborhood that has potential.
