History of Glendale AZ

The area that is currently Glendale was originally a desert wasteland outside of Phoenix. It did not have a natural source of water and thus was uninhabited. In 1885 William John Murphy, who worked for the Arizona Canal Company was put in charge of building a canal, 40 miles long, from the Granite Reef. In return for his efforts he had elected to be paid in stock, bond and land, instead of cash. This decision to not be paid in cash was detrimental because he had eventually run out of his own funds and had to sell portions of land to finance his construction.In 1891 Murphy organized a temperance colony and the project was a success. More like-minded families moved to the area because of the ban on alcohol. Finally in 1895, Murphy platted the land and began on construction. He then traded land rights for the railroad traveling from Phoenix to Prescott. The railroad passed through Glendale. A stop was built in Glendale and the inclusion of transport made the town more attractive and the population increased further due to the ability of residents to trade with the larger cities, yet live in a cost effective area.
