Lunchtime Lecture: Riordan Road's Hidden History - Images of the Lost Town of Milton
Riordan Mansion State Historic Park
May 13, 2024 12:15 p.m.
Why is Milton Road called Milton Road? Because it linked Flagstaff with a neighboring small town called Milton. Milton's main street was Riordan Road. Historian and Riordan Mansion volunteer David Portree will share Milton's history and describe a plan to bring Milton back to life.
Space is limited. Reserve your spot online at https://azstateparks.com/reserve/Activities/Search.aspx or call 928-779-4395 for additional information and same day availability. The presentation will be free thanks to Riordan Action Network.
We continue to collect stories of both Riordan employees and the company town of Milton. You can share your stories via this link. Share your Milton story link
