Although Phoenix and Arizona are relatively young, they have an eventful past. The website, "
Homes With A History," was created by
John Jacquemart, in honor of his long-time friend, architect Harold Ekman, to showcase the variety of building styles in Arizona's capital city. With his website, John hopes to:
- Be a resource for people interested in researching the architectural, historic, and social character of their properties;
- Serve as an accessible place to collect and disseminate information; and
- Promote historic preservation in Phoenix.
