Tour: Miracle Mile Vintage Bus Tour – with Ken Scoville aboard the Old Pueblo Trolley Vintage Tucson Bus

Event Details

Explore one of Tucson’s most important historic commercial corridors on a guided tour of Miracle Mile with historian and preservation advocate Ken Scoville. Traveling aboard Old Pueblo Trolley’s vintage Tucson bus, guests will discover the motels, neon signs, restaurants, roadside businesses, and automobile-oriented architecture that helped define Tucson’s postwar identity.

The tour traces the rise of Miracle Mile as a gateway to the city and examines how tourism, Route 80 and Route 89, car culture, and modern design transformed the corridor during the mid-twentieth century. Along the way, Scoville will share stories of landmark buildings, lost places, preservation efforts, and the people who shaped one of Tucson’s most distinctive historic landscapes.
