Feldman’s neighborhood is like a patchwork quilt—each home, street, and corner tells a story of growth, healing, and togetherness. This historic area, just northwest of downtown Tucson and hugging the University of Arizona, has always welcomed people looking for a fresh start and a sense of belonging.
Feldman’s roots stretch back to the early 1900s. The oldest house, built in 1902, still stands today and marks the area’s long history. The neighborhood’s namesake, Alther Marcus Feldman, was a German Jewish immigrant who arrived in Tucson in 1878 after tough times in California. He bought 160 acres just outside the city and built a family home that’s now part of the University of Arizona’s fraternity row.
The 1920s brought a building boom as people with tuberculosis flocked to Tucson for its dry climate. Feldman’s became known as “Lung Hill,” home to four sanatoriums—two of which, St. Luke’s Home and the Castle Apartments, still stand today. After World War II, another wave of new homes appeared, and by 2005, Feldman’s was officially named a national historic district. Today, you’ll find a mix of longtime residents, students, and families, all drawn by the area’s charm and community spirit.
Feldman’s is bordered by Stone Avenue (west), Park Avenue (east), Lee Street (north), and Speedway Boulevard (south).
Parking is available on neighborhood streets, and the area is easy to reach by bike, bus, or on foot from the university or downtown.
Feldman’s is like a friendly village inside the city. The neighborhood is known for its welcoming vibe, historic homes, and tree-lined streets. You’ll find a mix of families, students, and longtime Tucsonans who all look out for each other. The neighborhood is close to parks, schools, churches, and the university, making it easy to walk or bike to just about anything you need.
Community events, neighborhood clean-ups, and local gatherings help everyone stay connected. Plus, living in a historic district means you’re part of Tucson’s living history—many homes even qualify for special property tax savings.
