Why Live in Story

Story and many of its homes are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally a streetcar suburb, the neighborhood is about a mile west of downtown Phoenix and is named after Francis Quarles Story, a Bostonian wool merchant who helped boost Arizona's early economy.

He says the sense of community often draws people here, along with homes with unique characteristics. "I love my house. You've got lush green front yards and backyards. I've had neighbors for 35 years, and we've become close friends," he says.
