Ahwatukee is likely a word from the Crow Indian's native tongue, awe chuuke, which loosely translated means "land on the other side of the mountain". Possibly named by one of its founding residents, Miss Brinton who moved from Wyoming to Arizona. There is a prominent Crow population in Wyoming and thus influenced her name choice. She bought the land from St Lukes Hospital who acquired it from the original residents, Dr. and Mrs. Ames. They had built a home on the south east side of South Mountain but lived in it a very short time before Dr. Ames died. That home was demolished in 1979 and pieces of it were used to build Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in Guadalupe. In 1971, a portion of the land was purchased by the Presley Development Company (uncle to the legendary Elvis Presley) and was developed into a residential community. As the population grew, more land was acquired from the state of Arizona, International Harvester (who used the land as a proving ground), and private citizens. At one time, a portion of Ahwatukee was a junk yard. Hundreds of wrecked cars lined a portion of land west of I-10. Ahwatukee today is an affluent L-shaped community bordered on the south by the Gila River Indian Reservation, on the east by Interstate 10 including Chandler, Guadalupe and Tempe, and to the north by South Mountain Park. It has a population of about 90,000 and although its formal address is Phoenix, because of the isolation from the capital and 15 other suburbs it is always referred to as Ahwatukee.
