Evergreen Historic District

The Story of the Evergreen Historic District

The Evergreen Addition Historic District was officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 22, 2009. This special designation recognizes Evergreen's importance to Casa Grande’s history, showcasing beautiful architecture from the 1920s through the 1950s. From Craftsman bungalows to classic Ranch homes, the Evergreen District tells the story of our city's early days of growth and community spirit.

What is Contributing Property?

Not every historic home is a "contributing property" — and that's okay! 

A contributing property adds to the historic character of the district by: 

• Being built during the district’s period of significance (roughly 1920s–1950s) 
• Maintaining its original design, materials, and appearance 
• Helping tell the story of Evergreen’s unique past

Homes that have been heavily remodeled or altered may be classified as non-contributing, but both are important to the overall fabric of the district. 

Living here means you're part of something bigger — a vibrant chapter of Casa Grande’s history!
