F.Q. Story Phoenix AZ Houses for Sale

The FQ Story District is one of the great historic neighborhoods in downtown Phoenix. The neighborhood is named after Francis Quarles Story who was critical in the numerous projects in the city, including the development of Grand Avenue in 1887 and its subsequent streetcar line. He was also the creator of the marketing campaign which made the Sunkist Orange famous. The F. Q. Story neighborhood began in 1920, when Phoenix had a population under 30,000. It was a streetcar suburb, being close to the Grand Avenue and Kenilworth lines. The first houses were clustered by the streetcar line at the eastern edge. As the auto became more common, houses began to feature detached garages and porte cocheres. The last development phase began in 1927, encompassing eighty acres from 11th to 15th Avenues, between McDowell Road and Roosevelt Street.
