According to a recent book about the history of the neighborhood, singer and actor Rex Allen "Arizona's Cowboy" carried the bricks and mixed the mortar for the home during a summer job. Famous residents of the neighborhood over the years include Dwight Heard, Senator Barry Goldwater, Supreme Court Justice William Rehnquist and multiple Arizona governors such as Bruce Babbitt, Rose Mofford, Sidney Osborn, Paul Fannin, as well as several Phoenix mayors and sports celebrities. The neighborhood hosts an annual home tour and street fair, Halloween parade and picnic for the kids, an ice cream social, a holiday street light ribbon wrapping and Gala dinner, as well as other fun events.
