Tin Town, Tucson

JOY the one month old piggy visited Tin Town this morning

On Feb 17th 2017 Guy Atchley and TV camera man visited Tin Town to make a program on Tin Town .. we are not sure when it will be aired.

We are NOT closed!! We are open for appointments for tours everyday just call 520 869 3470 to set up a time and day.

Last week Tin Town hosted an event for the Pathfinders..and all of them had a great tour and dinner.. They enjoyed the game "what the heck is it?"..Gary and Pat enjoyed hosting their party and we hope they return again!!

Barbara and Anthony the daughter and grandson of Ham and Julie Wong visited us last week. We had been waiting for a visit from the family for a long time. They were able to see what we had done to their parents Market and they thought we had turned the Market into a happy place. It was a wonderful visit and we hope they come back again. The day Barbara's mother Julie was murdered here her father had gone to the post office to mail Barbara's Xmas presents to her in San Francisco....Anthony the grandson had just left the market when his grandmother was killed during the attempted robbery. We had a great visit with them and it was a special day for us and them.

The cigar store Indian, a late 1800's carousel horse, a large elephant have been restored by Gary.

This Saturday Tin Town will host another wedding for Nikki and David....should be a great time and we hope for good weather!

Remember the Carpet Giant sign that was at the corner of Speedway and Rosemont for many years...it advertised a carpet store "It takes a giant to hold down prices"...that store is now the antique mall and thanks to the owner Phil...we now have the Carpet Giant mounted on our ceiling ..it is 10x9feet...its looks really special and we have saved a part of Tucson's history!!
