Historic, centralized community close to famous city establishments
Developed on a former golf course 3 miles east of downtown, Broadmoor-Broadway is a quiet community half a square mile in size with historic homes, an active neighborhood association and close proximity to some of Tucson’s best eating spots in decades-old Broadway Village. “People drive from all over the city to get to those places,” says Tony Baker, Realtor at RE/MAX Professionals and Tucson native. “It’s in a super perfect location, and it attracts those who are maybe a little more ‘green’ since there’s a Natural Grocers right there.” Residents enjoy walking to the nearby desert tree-filled Arroyo Chico creek bed and hosting several monthly gatherings at its centrally-located Malvern Plaza. With more businesses building up along Broadway Boulevard—the neighborhood’s northern border—through the Sunshine Mile development project, Baker says people will be even more drawn to the area.
Due to the dry heat, most Broadmoor-Broadway homes feature gravel yards instead of lawns.
Broadmoor-Broadway is mostly set up in a grid-style, with streets easy to drive.
