City Of Tucson

The City of Tucson core surrounds Congress Street, Broadway & Stone, stretching into Armory Park, Barrio Viejo, El Presidio, and West University. Here you’ll find 1880-1930 Sonoran adobe row-houses, Craftsman bungalows, and Territorial Revival storefronts—many on the National Register. Residents walk or ride the Sun Link streetcar to cafés, theaters, UA campus, the Mercado, and weekly farmers markets. Bike boulevards connect to The Loop trail, while I-10 and Tucson International Airport sit 10–15 minutes away. With historic-property tax breaks, live-work zoning, and a thriving arts/nightlife scene, downtown Tucson attracts preservationists, young professionals, and investors seeking authentic desert urban living.
