F.Q. Story District Historic Home Tour
Thu, Dec 6, 2007
The F.Q. Story Historic District held it’s 23rd Annual Home Tour & Gift Sale on December 1st and 2nd. Saturday evening featured Dickens Carolers and glowing luminaries. Since the weather was damp (read: raining ALL day & night), I attended the Home Tour during Sunday afternoon. However, I heard that the neighborhood has 300-400 people visit Saturday evening! I still think that the area is best viewed in daylight. In addition to 10 homes inviting tour go-ers to see inside their piece of Phoenix history, the 1920’s neighborhood hosted a large holiday bazaar in the streets with crafts, food and sweets. Tickets to see the 10 homes were $15 dollars. Some homes for sale in the area held open houses. The entire Portland Street was blocked off and the 10 homes made for a very very nice walk. There was also a free trolley available but it was so nice out, I walked. Enjoy the pictures, leave a comment and mark your calendars for next year’s F.Q. Story’s tour on December 6th and 8th, 2008.

I have been attempting to contact the FQ Story neighborhood regarding the Holiday Open House. I am a crafter who would be very interested in having a booth at this event this December. If you are able to provide me with a name or someone to contact regarding this I would greatly appreciate it. Thank You
