Did a little pedaling Thanksgiving morning in downtown Phoenix and took the camera with me. I'm no photographer, but here's how great Phoenix is in the "wintertime".
This Chase stuff is going to take some getting use to.
Where are those new town houses at in the pic with camelback in the background? They seem nice. Downtown Phoenix has potential if there was more to do at night and ran out the bums and bangers. Right now there seems to be just sports, and does anyone even still go to the Arizona Center?
ASU is building a campus downtown, and housing thousands of students down her next year. There is a new convention center, and light rail will be done next year.
They are across the street from the ballpark. I used to live in the condos directly behind them. The ones with the green roof. I loved living downtown, unless there was a ballgame going on and then it was almost impossible to get home. I really miss Pizzeria Bianco. It was about 100 yards from my front door.
UNO once in awhile, but it's mostly tourists. We roll through and see how many loops we can do before security goes nuts and tries to hit us with their golf carts. "Shuttle" up the escalator and roll down the winding stairs and back around. The record is 3 loops. :biggrin:
I figured Thanksgiving morning everything would be dead, so it was a nice, peaceful ride without incident.
Two blocks from my place. I wish they'd turn the water back on, but I think there was too much bathing going on. Plenty of bummyhops over there though.
That building in #9 is the Orpheum Theatre and the inside is really beautiful. A buddy and I were street riding downtown on Easter Sunday a few years ago and somebody gave us tickets to the Arizona Ballet who were doing "Alice in Wonderland" set to the music of Beethoven and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I'm not a big a big ballet fan, but it was a really cool show.
