This was on the southeast corner of Fort Lowell and Campbell. Some
of the buildings are still standing but where the resteraunt was is
now gone. Their cheese crisps were smokin' hot...big and bubbly with
lots of cheese, tomatoes, onions, etc. Was my favorite.

Yeah, it was on the southeast corner of Prince and Campbell
(gas
station
there now) The restaurant was Rosa's or something close to
that.
I
ate there
once back in about 79 shortly after I moved out here.

Hi,
It wasn't a mall but one of DeGazia's early studios like the
Gallery In
The Sun. It was on Prince & Campbell. I believe it was torn
down
long ago.
I was friends with one of his grandsons who fixed up one of
the
sections
and lived there while he was attending the U of A.
I forget the name of the restaurant, but I was never
interested
in eating
there. Just seemed too dirty to me. I remember them using
paper
plates too,
but I think that was toward the end when they were maybe
going
downhill. I
remember that they had a very loyal following.
DeGrazia left most of his fortune to the DeGrazia Foundation
and
to an
illegitimate son. His other children didn't get much, the
biggest
asset he
left them I believe was this property on Prince. Do you
remember
when
DeGrazia protested the inheritance tax by burning 100 of his
paintings in
the Superstition Mountains?

From the later 60's I recall a small old shopping center on
the
corner
of maybe Grant and Campbell or Ft. Lowell? Unfortunately, I
don't
seem
to remember exactly which streets. It had a couple little art
shops and
a silversmith and a Mexican restaurant. Ted De Grazia had
done
art work
all over the inside walls of the restaurant. Can anyone help
me
with
the location or name? I think I remember hearing it was the
oldest
shopping center in Tucson. Thanks.
Hi, I think it was called Cambell plaza, on Cambell and I
believe Glenn.
