West University

West University, situated amid downtown and the university, sprawled from Speedway Boulevard to 6th Street as Tucson's first suburb. The University of Arizona began in 1885 on a plot of land then considered way out of town; houses for the middle and upper middle classes began being constructed just west of the new college between 1890 and 1930. West University has a few transformed Sonoran adobes, but the preponderance of the houses are appealing California bungalows in wood, or stuccoed brick homes with pitched roofs. Sidewalks, front porches, and neat front yards filled with flowers dress up the area. Sixty blocks strong, this immense district features 600 contributing houses, as well as the pedestrian-friendly Fourth Avenue Shopping District.
