Tucson Sustainable Communities

Civano

Tucson currently has several communities dedicated to building high energy efficient solar homes in sustainable neighborhoods. Civano, on the southeast side of Tucson is the first nationally recognized sustainable green housing community. The newest subdivision has homes offered exclusively by Pepper Viner Homes, at North Ridge, with homes ranging from 1600 to 2600 square feet. Doucette Homes offers their Civano homes exclusively at two subdivisions at the Orchards and Presidio. These homes display colorful contemporary presidio architecture and are built in a unique cluster home design with easy access to shopping, recreation, and the community center. Both of the Doucette subdivisions are built to the Tucson Electric Power Energy Program standards. If you are interest in the Civano community, contact and we'll be happy to show you around.

Armory Park del Sol

Just south of downtown Tucson is the historic community of Armory Park. Nearby is the subdivision of Armory Park del Sol, a nationally recognized model for green building practices, with solar homes built by John Wesley Miller Companies. Tucson Armory Park del Sol homes take their architectural inspiration from the surrounding designated historic neighborhood of Armory Park. If you have an interest in the Armory Park del Sol community, contact and we'll be happy to show you around.

Tucson Cohousing

Tucson cohousing communities bring together the advantages of an energy efficient sustainable private home with the benefits of shared common living facilities which promote interacting with neighbors. Cohousing residents are committed to living in a small close community. There are three energy efficient rated communities in Tucson. Milagro cohousing community is located in the Tucson Mountain foothills on the west side, and Sonora and Stone Curves communities are in the north central part of town.

With Arizona's over 300 days of sunshine, pristine outdoors, and abundant wildlife the new energy efficient community is designed to coexist with the environment not master it. If you have an interest in any of Arizona's communities, just contact and we'll be happy to provide you with information or show you around.

Mercado District of Menlo Park

The Menlo Park Mercado District is the first major project being built as part of the larger downtown Rio Nuevo revitalization project for the City of Tucson. The Rio Nuevo Project emphasises the history, culture and traditions of Tucson and the Mercado District design creates an architectural link between the historic past and the modern center of downtown Tucson.

The Mercado District neighborhood is located next to the heart of the Tucson Rio Nuevo Project's planned cultural and museum center just west of downtown. Homes will be situated around small plazas and tree lined streets with pedestrian walkways. The new streetcar system will connect the neighborhood with downtown and the University of Arizona. If you have an interest in the Mercado District custom homes, just contact and we'll be happy to show you around.
