College and Neighborhood Up for Historic Designation

The Phoenix Historic Preservation Commission has initiated the process to establish Historic Preservation zoning for the Phoenix College/Campus Vista Historic District. The area under consideration is bounded by Thomas Road, Osborn Road, 7th Avenue and 15th Avenue.

A public hearing to review the case before the Phoenix Historic Preservation Commission is scheduled for December 9. It will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the City Council Chambers, located at 200 West Jefferson Street.

Zoning designation is designed to recognize that a property or area is historically, culturally or architecturally significant and worthy of preservation. The designation does not change uses permitted by existing zoning but is intended to ensure that buildings in these districts historical integrity.

"Phoenix College is proud of our 82-year history," states President Dr. Corina Gardea. "We want to preserve its heritage and unique relationship with our neighboring community for a very long time."
