Eisendrath House is a beautiful 1930 Pueblo Revival adobe home in the rolling desert next to Papago Park. Although the home seems isolated on a Tempe hillside, its residents maintained strong connections to Jewish culture, artistic accomplishment, and the wealthiest of social circles.
History of the House: Rose Eisendrath, a widow of a Chicago glove manufacturer, was one of many affluent Chicago residents that spent winters discovering the cultural and historical asset of the Southwest, and proved instrumental in making the name "Arizona" synonymous with splendid winter vacations. After being refused accommodations at a valley resort due to her Jewish heritage. Mrs. Eisendrath acquired the 44-acre parcel in the hills above the Salt River in North Tempe on April 23, 1930, and commissioned the home to be built by family friend, Architect Robert T. Evans. The home is one of the finest remaining examples Evans' skill and mastery of adobe architecture.
