The Garfield Neighborhood is a diverse, historic front-porch community in the heart of downtown Phoenix. While we are the oldest, intact neighborhood in Phoenix, houses are still a bargain here. Where else can you get a 1910's fixer-upper? Consider fixing up your own historic home in Garfield, and be within walking distance of the Bank One Ballpark, ASU Downtown Campus, the new T-Gen Genetic research facility, and the upcoming Light Rail facilities. There are Historic Preservation and Neighborhood Initiative Area (NIA) funds to help rehabilitate and restore the historic character of Garfield homes-- see the links on the "Research Garfield" page to the left for more information. Want to start a business in Garfield? We are also a Redevelopment Area-- and are interested in hearing your ideas! Contact us and come to one of our monthly Revitalization and Economic Development meetings.

Garfield Neighborhood is between 7th and 16th Streets and from Van Buren Street to Interstate-10 in downtown Phoenix. Garfield is where you can still enjoy an affordable urban lifestyle - without the commute! We are one of the few neighborhoods in walking distance to downtown events - whether your interests are in art, music, sports, theatre, museums, or politics.
