  • Florence, Arizona Home Tour- February 2018- Part 18

    December 18, 2020 /

    After seeing the First Presbyterian Church, I walked to my final location on the tour: The Pinal County Historical Museum. By this time I was worn out from all the walking I did, but I wanted to walk to the museum because along the way was the Florence K-8 school. I went to Florence’s Elementary and Middle Schools. In my last year of middle school, the elementary school and middle school merged and became a K-8. During my freshman year of high school, parts of the middle school portion of the school was demolished and two story building was built.

    After walking away from Main Street, I made it to the Robles House. At the time of the home tour in 2018, the home was restored and was available to be stayed in on Airbnb. Early 2020, while searching for a potential new home, I discovered I found the house was for sale.

    The final house I visited before traveling a long distance away from Main Street was the W.Y. Price House. I didn’t go inside, but I took some photographs of the outside of the house.

    Down the road from the Emma Monk Guild House was two more houses on the tour. The first was on the corner of Willow Street and W Butte Ave. I didn’t go inside but I did take a photograph of it from the outside.

    A little ways down the road from the Florence Women’s Club was the Emma Monk Guild House. I did go inside the house, but because it was someone’s home, I decided not to take any photographs inside.

    After walking a ways, I finally arrived at the Florence Women’s Club building. I wanted to go inside, but I had many more stops to make so I took a few photographs of the exterior and continue walking to the next tour stop.

    After going inside the McFarland State Park, I took photographs of some of the exhibits. The McFarland State Park building served many functions over the years, but it currently serves as a museum and the Florence Visitors Center. Since I didn’t want to disturb anyone looking at the exhibits, I didn’t take as many photographs as I wanted to. Even though I didn’t take as many as I wanted, I was able to take some.

    Across the street from the Silver King Marketplace is the McFarland State Park. Although the Silver King Marketplace is across the street, I wanted to go to the McFarland State Park more. In addition to being a museum, the McFarland State Park also serves as the Florence Visitors Center.
