This area takes it's name from the Chapel Of The Cross church constructed in 1956 through the generous inspiration of Marquerite Bruswig Staude
. The church has been maintained by the Diocise of Phoenix since 1969.
The Chapel area is nestled against the Mogollon Rim and bordered by Hwy 89A. The Broken Arrow trail system is located in this area along with other-worldly red rock formations. This residential area primarily consists of older subdivisions on above average sized lots. The views are outstanding.
Along Hwy 89A you will find art galleries, lodging and restaurants catering to the tourists. The deeper your travel into the Chapel area, the closer you are to the Mogollon Rim and the quieter your solitude. It is easy to spend the day at home in the Chapel area.
