Arizona Motel Sells to Casa Maria for Affordable Housing in South Tucson
Continuing its plans to repurpose old motels into affordable housing for longtime Tucson residents, Casa Maria bought the Arizona Motel at 1749 S. 6th Ave. not far from downtown. The property has 32 rooms, 25 acres of RV park, laundry facilities, a pool, barbecue, game room and manager’s quarters. Brian Flagg, a City of South Tucson council member and Casa Maria, used a $1 million inheritance as a down payment. Casa Maria earlier this year bought the El Camino Motel at 297 E. Benson Hwy. and hopes to purchase two more properties.
