This square includes several old homes and buildings that were preserved as the modern downtown built up next to it. Tours of the Victorian house and the cottages are available during the day. The plaza also hosts a South American restaurant and a pizza restaurant as well as the science museum. There is a free audio tour online that tells you about the buildings and history of the square. It’s with a stop if you are in the area.

I stumbled across the Heritage Square area while walking back to my hotel and I am so glad I did. It was later in the evening so everything was closed, but it was still nice to see!

The Heritage Square is located at the end of the Arizona State University Campus – right next to the Science Park and the Football Stadium. The Lath Pavilion was a covered one, and offered lots of shade to rest in. There are very clean public restrooms there. At one time it was a venue for the neighborhood to gather and hold concerts.
All of the buildings in this small area belong to the Victorian Period between 1881 and 1923. Two of these have been restored into Museums, while others hold Restaurants, Pizza and Coffee Shops.
The most beautiful building here is the restored Rosson House with the adjacent Carriage House where there are maps and schematics of what downtown Phoenix would have looked like at that time.
The Square is a small and beautiful area reminiscent of an era 100 years old. It took us about an hour to walk around taking everything in. We spent another hour taking a guided tour of the Rosson Museum.
Worth a visit.

My sister and I were in town and found this on a morning walk. It was too early to go in to the places but we were able to walk around and see things. The Rosson house looks fantastic! The rose garden was beautiful- it’s hard to believe they grow like that in the desert. We enjoyed walking through the remaining little village area.

I really enjoyed the history and how well they have preserved it. In the gift store which is in one of the homes they have a working old typewriter . They allow you to use it. My son had fun typing. It is not something you see all the time. They also have turning some of the homes into working upscale restaurants .

Heritage Square has four or five restaurants, two buildings to tour, information center, and an outside pavilion. It’s a nice use of space you really don’t need any more than about 45 minutes to see everything and less you were dining

Heritage Square is an assortment of homes and businesses raised between 1881 and 1923, the last surviving set of buildings from the original Phoenix town site of 98 blocks, showing what Arizona's capital city looked like in its earliest days. Located at 115 North 6th Street, east of downtown Phoenix, part of the Heritage and Science Park, it includes the Rosson House, the cornerstone of a city block dating from the late 19th century and has been restored to its Victorian roots; the Forest Burgess Carriage House, which was built in 1881 and is the oldest structure in the Square; the Carriage House, located in the center of the Square, which was built as a mule barn for the adjacent Teeter House in 1899; the Bouvier-Teeter House, which was built in 1899 and now is the Victorian Tea Room; the Silva House, a bungalow with neoclassical revival influences that was built in 1900, is occupied by the Rose and Crown, an English pub; the Stevens-Haugsten House, built in 1901, is significant for its representation of the historic California bungalow style popular around the turn of the 20th century; the Stevens House, also built in 1901, now houses the Arizona Doll & Toy Museum; the Baird Machine Shop, built in 1929, now houses the popular Pizzeria Bianco; and Hughes-Stevens Duplex, built in 1923, the youngest of the houses on the Square, is renowned for its sleeping porches constructed with canvas and wood panels that let in cool desert air in the evening.

Heritage Square is only a short walking distance from the convention center, just turn into Monroe street. This is where you go to get the taste of Phoenix history.
Beautiful area, a remnant of Victorian center of the town with just several houses left.
If you are driving - garage building is “next door” on 5th and Monroe.
Start from the visitor center in Burgess Carriage House next to Rosson House. I received a lot of information here as well as a warm reception. This is also the place to buy your tickets for the well worth guided tour of the Queen Ann-style Rosson House. Other than the house tour the rest of my exploration of the Heritage Square was self-guided but made easy by the booklet from the visitor center.
Steven-Haustgen House holds exhibit of Phoenix maps. Stevens House is now a souvenir shop. There are some “please,touch” exhibits for children. Coffee shop is in Teeter Carriage House and Baird Machine House is nowadays Pizzeria Bianco.
The Lath Pavilion was pleasant but its purpose confusing to me but I learnt it is used for community events.
Heritage Square is right next to Arizona State University and Arizona Science Center.

Heritage square is incredibly small, so it is bewildering that it would not be open daily for visitors.

First of all there is a parking garage right next door, take your ticket with you and they will discount the parking ticket depending on the time you spend there. The tour through the Rosson House was and hour long and we thought the house was beautiful and interesting. There are multiple buildings in the square. Gift shop, antiques, pizza shop,coffee shop and other buildings some you can not go in but it's very pretty to walk around and enjoy the outdoors. There is also a Science Museum there, but we did not tour it.
