TUCSON, Ariz. — The first of five historic homes at the corner of Speedway and Euclid was picked up and moved a few blocks away early Monday morning, as part of a plan to clear space for new student and workforce housing near the University of Arizona.

Capstone is paying for the relocation, saying the cost is"well over" a million dollars. The company is also investing in infrastructure like new sidewalks in the neighborhood. Plenty of neighbors stayed up late to watch, including U of A urban planning students Anna Schrauth and Annika Risser, who set up lawn chairs on the sidewalk.Bill Hubbard’s family owned these homes for roughly fifty years before selling the properties to Capstone. They saw too many close calls with cars on Speedway.
