Details
Take a stroll down Main Avenue and view the grand homes of the movers and shakers of early Tucson, including:
• Hiram and Petra Stevens, a prominent merchant couple whose domestic life was less than perfect
• Sam Hughes, considered by some the “father of Tucson”
• Annie Cheyney, whose newly restored 1905 home was the talk of the town
• Albert Steinfeld, a man of department store fame whose son, Harold, was a top scorcher
• Frank Hereford, the attorney who represented the defendants in the Wham Robbery
No interior access, but striking architecture and rich history make this ideal for those who prefer more storytelling and less walking. This tour covers 0.25 mile in 2 hours. Pre-registration is required.
Begins and ends in front of the Tucson Museum of Art, 140 N. Main Ave.
