Mpact Innovators Presents: Walking Tour – Arizona Center and Heritage Square

Explore pockets of downtown Phoenix that offer a sense of both history and revitalization. The Arizona Center, across from the hotel, is one of the first mixed-use projects in downtown, featuring dining, shops, refreshing green space and waterways as well as new high-rise developments. See how the desert landscape interacts with the built environment. Continue to the ASU Mercado, where Spanish-style buildings provide space for classrooms, local businesses and offices. And then on to Heritage Square and Science Park, with buildings from the 1800s now occupied by museums and restaurants.
