Indicate whether the property has historic integrity.) ______________________________________________________________________________ Summary Paragraph The El Presidio Fountain is located near the center of Tucson’s El Presidio Park where it acts as a focal point for the park’s landscaping and surrounding public buildings. The fountain was constructed between 1970 and 1971 and designed by architect Michael A. Lugo, Jr. and artist Charles Clement. It occupies approximately 2,215 sq. ft with a large basin set into the park’s paved surface. The basin is roughly rectangular in shape and is defined by cast concrete elements ornamented with custom bas-relief panels cast by Clement. Since construction, the only substantive changes to the fountain have come from the addition of new tiles used to line the basin during a previous restoration effort. Overall, the fountain is both an excellent example of late Modernist public art and a rare example of public art completed as part of Tucson’s Urban Renewal program. Although it has suffered from a lack of maintenance and remains currently non-functional, the fountain retains integrity of location, setting, design, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. ______________________________________________________________________________ Narrative Description The El Presidio Fountain is located within El Presidio Park in downtown Tucson, Arizona. The park is part of a complex of City of Tucson (City) and Pima County-owned municipal buildings located between West Alameda Street to the north, Pennington Street to the south, North Church Avenue to the east, and North Granada Avenue to the west (Figures 1 and 2). The park is a Section 7 page 4 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service / National Register of Historic Places Registration Form NPS Form 10-900 OMB Control No. 1024-0018 El Presidio Fountain Pima County, AZ Name of Property County and State roughly rectangular shaped area comprised of both hardscape and softscape landscape elements surrounded by multi-story buildings (Figures 3-6). Within the center of the park stands the El Presidio Park Fountain. Immediately adjacent and abutting the park to the east is the 1929 Pima County Courthouse designed by architect Roy Place, the 1960-1966 10-story Tucson City Hall designed by the architectural firm of Friedman and Jobusch to the southwest, and the contemporary Sunset Park to the northwest. Immediately outside the park are several post World War II (WWII)-era modernist buildings. North of the park across West Alameda Street is the 11- story Transamerica Building (architect Thomas E. Stanley, 1961-1962; notably the site of another Charles Clement sculpture) to the northeast; the single story former Health and Welfare Building (architect James A. MacMillan, 1942) to the north, and the Tucson Museum of Art’s east entry (architect William Wilde, 1974-1975) to the northwest. South across West Pennington Street are the three towers of the Pima County Government Complex (architects Terry Atkinson, Place and Place, Gordon M. Luepke, Ivan A. Sarkiss, and Finigal and Dombrowski, 1967-1974) The park itself is constructed atop a three-story subterranean garage which, like the Tucson City Hall and Pima County Government Complex, was built during an intensive campaign of urban renewal in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The garage is composed of cast concrete and is accessible to vehicles through multiple entries along West Alameda Street and West Pennington Street. Pedestrian access is provided through vertical circulation shafts which rise above each corner of the garage to provide access to the park. Including these four entry points, the park is also accessible from two footbridges to the south, from a pedestrian walkway through the courthouse to the east, from West Alameda Street to the northeast and northwest, from the adjacent Sunset Park to the northwest, and from the ground story of Tucson City Hall to the west. These entries meet in a wide plaza paved with red brick and surrounded by a combination of walls and planters cast from exposed aggregate concrete often with attached concrete benches. These planters are filled with sculpted shrubs and small shade trees and help screen the plaza from the surrounding buildings. Within the plaza, circular planters—also often with wrapping benches—are used to help further organize the area into discrete spaces

One’s first impression may be of size and distance—broad valleys rimmed by mountain ranges, with a huge sky arching over all. However, a closer look reveals that, beneath the broad brush strokes, this is a land of astonishing variety. For example, it is comprised of several kinds of desert, year-round flowing streams, and sky island mountain ranges.

  • Indian Wars in Arizona Territory
    Indian Wars in Arizona Territory The stage line brought many more whites through the Pima villages, but the Civil War had an even greater effect. Far from the center stage, the major impact of the war in Arizona slowed the pace of white settlement. When the army abandoned their posts throughout the state in order to send soldiers east, Apaches raids increased. Although Arizona’s contributions to the national conflict were minimal, the Pimas and Maricopas played a key role in the western war. While the Pimas and Maricopas continued to augment their economic alliance with the whites, they also expanded the other valuable service they had provided since the days of the Spaniards— protection from the Apaches. One of the first accounts of an American/Indian military alliance is recounted in the Pima calendar sticks which relate that the Pimas and Maricopas joined with white soldiers in a campaign against the Apaches under White Hat, in 1856 or 1857. As long as whites were just passing through, the protection Gileños (Pimas and Maricopas) provided for their supply trains was sufficient. Pimas and Maricopas fulfilled this need with regular punitive raids against the Apaches several times a year, keeping them away from Pima lands but stopping short of attacking their enemies' mountain rancherías (farm/camps). As the white population increased, so did Apache raids. When gold was discovered in the Weaver and Walker diggings near Prescott, miners flocking to the area found themselves much closer to Apache homelands than was prudent. By the spring of 1863, the Apaches had attacked and murdered several small parties of prospectors and miners.

  • Part 70 Reservation
    Establishment of the Reservation: 1852-1865 Pima-Maricopa Irrigation Project Education Initiative Surveying the Pima 2005-2006 Reservation: 1859 Restoring water to ensure the continuity of the Akimel O’otham and Pee Posh tradition of agriculture Sylvester Mowry did more than distribute the gifts Congress made available to the Pima and Maricopa under the 1859 act. He also supervised the survey of the Pima Part 70 Reservation. While expecting to survey a 240,000 acre reservation, the agent was ordered to limit the reservation to an area “not to exceed the limit specified by Congress,” or 64,000 acres. He had $1,000 at his disposal to conduct “a cheap kind of survey.” When Mowry traveled to the villages to distribute the gifts, engineer Andrew B. Gray accompanied him. Charged with the actual survey of the reservation, Gray was already familiar with the Pima villages from his days as a surveyor with the Mexican Boundary Survey and the Pacific Railroad survey of 1855. How Gray surveyed the reservation reveals much about the perceived threat to the Pima and Maricopa villages in 1859. Gray and Mowry met with Antonio Azul and the village leaders to discuss the survey. As Mowry made clear in his report, the Americans were not particularly concerned with Pima and Maricopa desires. Writing to Greenwood, Mowry noted the difficulty he had explaining to Azul and the headmen the nature and purpose of the survey as the Americans saw it. Azul repeatedly argued the Pima and Maricopa “claimed as their own property the entire Gila valley on both sides,” from the Pinal Mountains east of Florence to the Little Desert near Gila Bend.

  • Chorographies, Ancient Ruins, and Placemaking in the Salt
    Casas Montezumas: Chorographies, Ancient Ruins, and Placemaking in the Salt and Gila River Valleys, Arizona, 1694-1868 by Linnéa K. E. Caproni A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved April 2017 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Victoria Thompson, Chair Philip VanderMeer Dallen Timothy ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2017 ABSTRACT This dissertation uses the narrative practice of chorography as a genre for assessing the history of placemaking in the Salt and Gila River region of central Arizona from the late seventeenth century through the mid-nineteenth century. Chorography concerns the descriptive representation of places in the world, usually of regions associated with a particular nation. Traditionally, chorography has served as a written method for describing geographical places as they existed historically. By integrating descriptions of natural features with descriptions of built features, such as ancient ruins, chorography infuses the physical landscape with cultural and historical meaning. This dissertation relies on a body of Spanish- and English-language chorographies produced across three centuries to interpret how Euro- American descriptions of Hohokam ruins in the Salt and Gila River valleys shaped local placemaking. Importantly, the disparate chorographic texts produced during the late- seventeenth, eighteenth, and early nineteenth centuries reflect ‘discursive continuity’—a continuity of thought spanning a long and frequently disregarded period in the history of central Arizona, in which ruminations about the ruins of ancient cities and irrigation canals formed the basis for what people knew, or thought they knew, about the little-known region. When settlers arrived in the newly-formed Arizona Territory in the 1860s to establish permanent settlement in the Salt and Gila River valleys, they brought with them a familiarity with these writings, maps, and other chorographical materials.
