1964 photos: Four-story loggia is home's highlight
From the Photos: Peek inside these 80+ historic Tucson homes series
In 1964, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Costello was photographed for the Tucson Citizen home section. The house's design was inspired by a magazine picturing a similar house in the Florida Keys. While that home used screens, the Costellos used glass for floor-to-ceiling windows.
