River Road and Campbell
Avenue
Looking North
[above] In 1941 St. Philips in the Hills
stood at the crossroads of River Road and Campbell Avenue. Designed
by architect Josia Joesler for developer John Murphy, as a gateway
structure for the emerging foothills estates being built along north
Campbell.
[top right] By 1995 the area was a busy
hub for established business centers and the many residences spreading
well into the Catalina foothills.
[right] 2005 shows the addition of another
new shopping and business center on the northwest corner as well
as a major widening of the intersection. |
