¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Could this be it? There are date palms in the pic. Casas Adobes.

One of the first to build a home in the area was Maurice L. Reid who came to Tucson in 1923 seeking a "walking cure" for tuberculosis.? In the late 1920s Reid bought a 1,500-acrs former ranch, bounded by Oracle, Orange Grove and Ina roads and La Cholla Boulevard.? Reid planted more than 200 acres of citrus trees and date palms that became the heart of Tucson's citrus industry.? Over the years, Reid sold parcels of land for home sites and in 1950 sold the last of his land, some of which is today Ranchos Los Amigos Mobile Home Park.
