Historic Phoenix Area Architecture
Ralph Haver Neighborhoods
“Neighborhoods such as Marlen Grove demonstrate the impact of innovative ranch house design in the post-war boom era of Phoenix. The modern design of these homes reflects the optimism of the time through simple forms and integration of indoor and outdoor living.”
Best New Architecture
Downtown Phoenix ASU Campus
“Notable new buildings, as well as adaptive reuse and public art installations, have recently been added to create a uniquely Phoenix experience in a previously desolate part of the city. New restaurants, shops and galleries are taking hold in the surrounding area.”
Best “Off-the-Beaten-Path” Architecture
Cosanti
“Not only a precursor of Paolo Soleri’s vision for a new community, but an interesting experiment with construction techniques and integration with the desert. Bonus: an opportunity to purchase an iconic bronze wind-bell!”
Best Restaurants
Postino’s
“This trendy wine bar has two locations in Phoenix.”
Chelsea’s Kitchen
“Chelsea’s Kitchen has a great patio and upscale comfort food.”
