Margarita Place is historically significant under National Register Criterion, as it conveys the broader pattern of development and community planning as the city of Phoenix evolved from a farming community in the late 1920s to an industrial urban area by 1960. During these significant years, the Great Depression, World War II and a Post-War economic boom all impacted general housing developments in Phoenix, and more specifically development in the Margarita Place neighborhood.
In brief, the district was platted in 1927, but because of the Great depression, initial homebuilding was slow to start. Margarita Place experienced a surge of growth in the early 1940s, and consistent with the ideas set forth by the Federal Housing Administration, these homes were all constructed by the same builder. During the aftermath of World War II, construction within Margarita Place occurred at a steady rate, consistent with the surrounding area. By 1960, the neighborhood had achieved a mature "built out" state, with the remainder of development occurring as infill and/or redevelopment of vacant lots. See source for more detail.
