The F. Q. Story Historic District
The Story neighborhood is one of Phoenix's first historic districts. Its 602
homes date from the late 1920s and span a variety of architectural styles, including
Spanish Colonial Revival, English Tudor, Craftsman bungalows and transitional
ranch. Homes are listed on both the federal and state registers of historic
places. The neighborhood is bounded by McDowell Road, Roosevelt Street, Seventh
Avenue and Grand Avenue. It is governed by the Story Preservation Association,
a non-profit group consisting of Story residents. The association was started
in 1984.
Email policy: due to concerns regarding
email spam, I have decided to try to "confuse" automatic spam generators
by adding the letters nospam to all email addresses
listed on our site. In order to email someone, just click on the name as usual,
but when the email box comes up, check the email address and delete the nospam
from the name. Then you can send the email as usual.

Neighborhood Info:
We now have an updated Contractor Survey form which
automatically posts your survey info to the website. If you've had home improvement
work done lately, take a moment to fill out our survey about the contractor
who did the work. We have also added a "Hall of Shame" of those contractors
that did not merit very good reviews. You can see at a glance those which neighbors
had bad experiences with.
Got household items to get rid of? Don't put them out in the alley. One resource
for getting rid of stuff you no longer want is Freecycle.org.
it's a message board similar to our own that enables you to list stuff to
give away and people can come pick it up. Another interesting site: Earth
911.
Visit our Furry Friends page to see our new link to
Petfinder, a national database of adoptable pets. Also check out the featured
cute furry critter available for adoption in Arizona.
Problems with feral cats? Visit AZCats.org for help and read about a neighbor's
