This is a list of historic properties in Glendale, Arizona, which includes a photographic gallery, of some of the city's remaining historic structures and monuments. ==Glendale== The town of Glendale, Arizona, was founded by William John Murphy in 1892.〔(Founder of Glendale )〕〔(The First Five: A Brief History of the Salt River Project )〕 The establishment of a Santa Fe railroad link to Phoenix in 1895 allowed Glendale to blossom into the largest town in the northwest Salt River Valley. The city was incorporated as a town in 1910 and is currently the 4th largest city in Arizona. The city has 20 listings on the National Register of Historic Places, which includes ten historic neighborhood districts. The first of these districts to be placed on the register is that of the ''Glendale townsite-Catlin Court Historic District''.〔(National Register of Historic Places )〕 The other nine historic neighborhood districts are the ''59th Avenue Residential Historic District, Floralcroft Historic District, Glendale Gardens Historic District, Glendale Tract Historic District, Northfield Historic District, Myrtle Avenue Residential Historic District, Sage Acres Historic District, Sands Estate Historic District'' and the ''Thunderbird Estates and The McDonald Addition Historic District''. Additionally, a number of properties which are considered historical by the Glendale Historic Society and the Glendale List of Historic Places Survey are listed here with a brief description and image.〔(Glendale’s historic homes and buildings )〕〔(Catlin Court Walking Tour )〕 Also included in this list are the images of the airfield control tower (which has been restored), barracks, and one large airplane hangar of what once was Thunderbird 1 Army Air Field. The airfield, where the Thunderbird School of Global Management is currently located, was a military airfield in Glendale that was used for contract primary flight training of Allied pilots during World War II.〔From "The History of Thunderbird," Parts 1 and 2, in ''Das Tor'', October 1992.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of historic properties in Glendale, Arizona」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
