Honoring our history, creating our future.
The Nook in the News
Fairview Place's water harvesting demonstration parklet - the Fairview Neighborhood Nook – is making a splash! People now refer to us as the "water harvesting neighborhood".
Most recently, the Nook was featured on ABC15 during the announcement of the City of Phoenix's Green Stormwater Infrastructure: Handbook for Residents, starring Del Norte neighbor, Heather Finden.
The handbook gives practical instructions on how to capture stormwater on your property and use it to grow a lush desert oasis. Added bonus - by redirecting stormwater to your yard, you’ll also be simultaneously mitigating street flooding!
Get to know us.

Spreading Holiday Cheer
TBD
Neighbors will sign up to host a table in their driveway, and everyone can walk around the neighborhood collecting holiday-inspired items and experiences.
Here are a few examples of what driveway hosts could offer:
- Hot cocoa or cider stations
- Jingle bells or holiday trinkets
- Caroling sheet music for mini sing-alongs
- Holiday coloring pages and crayons for kids
More details will be shared in our November newsletter!
