This seems like a good thing ARCHAEOLOGY: Vista Del Rio honors its former residents

The Vista Del Rio neighborhood on the city's Northeast Side is a quiet, residential area - probably not unlike it was 1,000 years ago when another neighborhood - of the Hohokam culture - occupied the same turf.

The city is putting finishing touches on a ramada and a series of walkways through the newly designated Vista Del Rio Archaeological Park, a 4-acre set-aside just north of Tanque Verde and Dos Hombres roads.

A formal dedication program is anticipated in January or February.
