Return To Paradise

Opening Remarks


Modern Phoenix Week showcases our region’s legacy as hotspot for Midcentury Modern and Contemporary architectural design. This year we’ll Return to Paradise — Paradise Gardens, that is — a 1960s subdivision that is the only example of tract homes involving the input of Arizona architect Alfred Newman Beadle.

Home in Paradise Gardens

Though the extent of his involvement is hotly contested Beadle's touch lingers in the spirit of the homes. Paradise Gardens is one of the Valley's magnets for creative professionals who greatly transform or restore the homes in the Modernist spirit.
