My journey began several years ago. I had finally decided to seriously look for a house to buy. I really liked the concept of Civano. However, with rising oil prices, I quickly fell out of love with the idea of commuting so far. Even Al Gore's praise of Civano couldn't change my mind to move there. In hindsight, I'm glad I didn't.
In August of 2004, I turned my attention to Rio Nuevo. That year, the city of Tucson began to vigorously promote its revitalization plan for downtown. So, I emailed Karen Thoreson, City of Tucson Assistant City Manager, for more information about the city's plan. This is what she told me regarding the new housing that would be built downtown:
My understanding is that the pricing will be in the $100 = $300K range with a few (20 or so) that are marketed under our affordable home purchase program. You can reach them at Mercado District of Menlo Park - 393-4125. Good luck - ground breaking on the 9th of November!
