[[Park Place (Tucson, Arizona)|Park Place]], a recently renovated shopping center, is also along Broadway (west of Wilmot Road).

Near the intersection of Craycroft and Ft. Lowell Roads are the remnants of the Historic Fort Lowell. This area has become one of Tucson's iconic neighborhoods. In 1891, the Fort was abandoned and much of the interior was stripped of their useful components and it quickly fell into ruin. In 1900, three of the officer buildings were purchased for use as a sanitarium. The sanitarium was then sold to Harvey Adkins in 1928. The Bolsius family – Pete, Nan and [[Charles Bolsius|Charles]] – purchased and renovated surviving adobe buildings of the Fort, transforming them into spectacular artistic southwestern architectural examples. Their woodwork, plaster treatment and sense of proportion drew on their Dutch heritage and New Mexican experience.

Other artists and academics throughout the middle of the 20th century, including Win Ellis, [[Jack Maul]], Madame [[Germaine Cheruy]] and [[René Cheruy]], Giorgio Belloli, Charles Bode, [[Veronica Hughart]], [[Edward H. Spicer]] and [[Rosamond Spicer]], [[Hazel Larson Archer]] and Ruth Brown, renovated adobes, built homes and lived in the area. The artist colony attracted writers and poets including beat generation Alan Harrington and [[Jack Kerouac]] whose visit is documented in his iconic book ''[[On the Road]]''. This rural pocket in the middle of the city is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Each year in February the vicinage celebrates its history in the City Landmark it owns and restored the [[San Pedro Chapel]].

Situated between the [[Santa Catalina Mountains]] and the [[Rincon Mountains]] near [[Redington Pass]] northeast of the city limits is the affluent community of [[Tanque Verde, Arizona|Tanque Verde]]. The Arizona National Golf Club, Forty-Niners Country Club, and the historic Tanque Verde Guest Ranch are also in northeast Tucson.

Southeast Tucson continues to experience rapid residential development. The area includes [[Davis-Monthan Air Force Base]]. The area is considered to be south of Golf Links Road. It is the home of Santa Rita High School, Chuck Ford Park (Lakeside Park), [[Lakeside Lake]], Lincoln Park (upper and lower), The Lakecrest Vicinagess, and Pima Community College East Campus. The Atterbury Wash with its access to excellent bird watching is also in the Southeast Tucson area. The suburban community of [[Rita Ranch]] houses many of the military families from Davis-Monthan, and is near the southeasternmost expansion of the current city limits. Close by Rita Ranch and also within the city limits lies Civano,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://tucson.com/news/local/street-smarts-civano-honors-notable-tucsonans-who-gave-to-their/article_ed9df1c4-0cca-5f69-b59e-1c4dc477b236.html|title=Street Smarts: Civano honors notable Tucsonans who gave to their community|author=David Leighton|newspaper=Arizona Daily Star|date=October 2, 2017 |access-date=July 7, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180707202343/https://tucson.com/news/local/street-smarts-civano-honors-notable-tucsonans-who-gave-to-their/article_ed9df1c4-0cca-5f69-b59e-1c4dc477b236.html|archive-date=July 7, 2018|url-status=live}}</ref> a planned development meant to showcase ecologically sound building practices and lifestyles.
