Historic Barrio Viejo

Barrio Viejo (“Old Neighborhood” in Spanish) is one of Tucson’s most historic, colorful, and beautiful neighborhoods in Tucson.  A collection of smaller barrios (neighborhoods) surround it as it is in Downtown Tucson.  Barrio Viejo is Tucson’s second oldest subdivision with homes created in 1870.  A large portion of Barrio Viejo was bulldozed during urban renewal during the 1960’s, but the southern portion is still vibrant and well.  The southern half of Barrio Viejo has the largest concentration of adobe constructed, territorial style homes than any other district in Tucson.

As this area is older, and infill construction is common in this area, zero setbacks and continuous rows of homes and buildings are common.  The area is colorful with palettes of Southwestern style to match the adobe construction.  South Convent Avenue is a good example of infill reconstruction and rehabilitation.  Most of the reconstruction in this area is residential homes, with a healthy mix of new and older homes.
