History
Among Pima Canyon's myths of treasure is the legend of the famed "Mine with an Iron Door." According to very old lore, a native rebellion in 1751 motivated Jesuit missionaries to hide vast amounts of gold and silver in a secluded vault, entrenched in the mountainside. Some say these treasures have stayed safe from discovery to this day. Description
Pima Canyon is positioned adjacent to the boundaries of the Coronado National Forest and the southern range of the Santa Catalina Mountains. To the north is in excess of 255,000 acres of protected desert highlands. To the south, the city lights glisten on the night horizon. And panoramic mountain landscapes roll out in every path. From your window, you'll marvel at the royal saguaro silhouetted against the blaze of a impressive Southern Arizona sunset. Developed by Foothills Resort Properties, Pima Canyon is an elite gated district set at the entrance of one of Tucson's most untouched canyons. Intended to defend the value and integrity of this supreme environment, the Pima Canyon community offers 290 home sites on 450 acres to craft your custom irreplaceable home. Every generous home site retains its privileged perspective of sweeping cityscapes and jagged foothill views. Meticulous architectural design guidelines guarantee that every home blends with the environment and the community. As one would anticipate, all utilities have been sited underground. Plus, the community walking paths connect to elite trailheads leading into the Santa Catalinas. In short, the desert remains in its natural state. And that natural harmony is the essential superiority of the distinctive Pima Canyon setting. |
