Robson Historic District
The Robson Historic District in Mesa exemplifies the early to mid-twentieth century growth and transformation of the original Mesa Townsite. Initially developed as a neighborhood for middle- and upper-class families, the district highlights the shift from large garden lots, typical of the original Mormon settlement, to smaller, more densely developed parcels to accommodate the city's growing population. The district is significant for its association with community planning and development as well as for its architecture.
While some original parts of the district were created through planned subdivisions, the Robson Historic District stands out as one of the clearest examples of this later informal development process. This evolution was crucial for Mesa as it addressed the increasing demand for housing, transitioning from a pastoral, agricultural community to a more urbanized area aligned with the growth of nearby cities like Phoenix, Glendale, and Tempe. The district's development pattern reflects Mesa's response to the need for more intensive residential spaces while retaining its original character.
