Globe, Arizona’s Monuments of Grandeur
Globe and its sister city, Miami, are both located in the heart of Arizona, providing access to both the vast outdoors and welcoming historic areas. At the crossroads of US Highway 60 and State Route 77, Globe serves as a gateway to Roosevelt Lake, the San Carlos Apache region, and the Pinal Mountains. Globe’s lovely downtown emanates old-fashioned charm, including a historic courthouse, county jail with magnificent churches. Have a closer look at the homes during the chamber of commerce’s annual spring historic home tour.
