The atmosphere is unmatched. You can stroll through the market, grab something delicious, and then relax on the grass while enjoying great music.

Everything is well-organized, clean, and welcoming, which makes it easy to spend hours here without even realizing it. Whether you're coming with friends, family, or even solo, there's always something to enjoy.

I love Tempe for its programs to reduce, reuse and recycle. The Household Products Collection…read moreCenter was created for Tempe and Guadalupe residents to be able to drop off any hazardous materials that would be dangerous to throw away and to save any items that can be recycled. Some common items you can bring in to the center are: Light bulbs Aerosol cans Motor oil Fryer oil Paint Computers and computer monitors For a complete list, go here: http://www.tempe.gov/city-hall/public-works/household-products-collection-center-hpcc/don-t-trash-it 4 days out of the year the center has a Zero Waste Day. We actually didn't even realize we had come on this season's Zero Waste Day and were pleasantly surprised by the ease of being able to drop off our items. Everything was very well organized, with different stations for each type of item you are wanting to drop off. You don't even have to get out of your car! The staff here will take everything from your car for you. The city works with several vendors (E.g., document shredding companies, Goodwill, Tempe Community Action Agency) in order to make these days a success. Zero Waste Day allows residents to drop off additional items the center wouldn't normally take. This includes: Styrofoam Food donations Clothing Paper for shredding Bicycles and bicycle parts For a more complete list, go here: http://www.tempe.gov/city-hall/public-works/recycling-and-solid-waste/recycling/zero-waste-days From the Household Products website, "As of January 2018 over 98,109 residents have dropped off items to be recycled or reused at the HPCC. Since 2005 there has been over a 205% increase in participation including over 453,366 pounds of waste collected just last year with a 94% recycling rate! Total weight diverted from the landfill and storm drains is over 4,519,637 pounds of material." Very cool! Let's keep our planet as healthy as possible by recycling and reusing what we can! Details: -Open Fridays (7-12) and Saturdays (7-1) -Right next to the Tempe Fire Training Center -4 Zero Waste Days offered a year (Jan, April, November from the website) **You will need to bring proof of residency to be able to drop off items** (Driver's license or utility bill)

Super awesome place! I don't know why I only got to know this place now, but glad I found this…read moreplace! They take lots of electronics for free if you are a Tempe resident, today I brought my used 55 inch LVD TV and they took it for free. I didn't need to even get out of my car, the staffs there took the TV out and all I had to do was just sitting in my car. They are super friendly as well! I made a call before the visit, they were friendly through the phone call and even more friendlier in person!

Another year of jury duty at the Superior Court in wonderful PHX Arizona and honestly I was shocked…read moreby how nice we juror's had it compared to serving in Downtown Los Angeles where the room is cold concrete and dark with nothing to see or do but stare at the wall. The accommodations were really nice without going into too much detail. But if you get summoned bring a tablet or laptop there's food near by so even after being there all day I was honestly content being there.

Reporting for Jury Duty, yup! Got uber to drive me here because I'm pretty sure the parking in…read morePhoenix is hectic, even my Uber driver had to circle twice just to know where to drop me off. I'm not familiar with the area but in getting in after the security check/metal detectors, you simply go left where all the other people are sitting (like they were waiting for their flights to depart) because it looks exactly like an airport. Once you enter the room, you'll have to sign in on their portable computer thingy, ah kiosk is what I was looking for, with your Jury ID # and last name. There will be people/workers to help you in the process. The rest is just the waiting game. I was here 15 mins before 9am and then didn't announce anything till 30mins after. You will be shown a video of what to expect and where everything is (cafe, restroom) which I totally forgot where those two are. And then one of them will call you by a number 1-60 and by your last name and first initial of first name, then you will head to the back of the room where an assistant will hand you a paper with your number and QR code which you'll scan to fill out the questionaire. If you don't have a tablet they will provide you one. If you don't remember the number, like I totally did, then say your last name because it should match with it. Then you wait some more. Was told that by 1:30pm that they will decide whether some of us go to the courtroom while the other goes home, based on what you said on the questionaire. There are no wrong or right answers but def they were some questions repeated a couple times just worded differently The people here are super nice and helpful and if you're like me with anxiety of going to unfamiliar places, don't be afraid to ask :) Why 4 stars? Because I don't want to be here. Lol but the place is clean and spacious. Uber was $64 plus tip all the way from QC to Downtown Phx. And in going back- Uber was $70. Love it. Sarcastically speaking. Hope yours will be a good case if you were one of the chosen 10 I got to go home.. waited 5 hours for my name to not be called

Staff is friendly and very helpful - took less than 5 minutes to get a library card. The children's and young adult areas are part of the first floor. You can check out their events calendar online to see when their story time events, movie nights, and other socializing events are. There's also a room where you can have access to a variety of supplies, whether it be different tools for an art project, a 3d printer, and much more. The second hand bookstore is also here. I'm not sure what the basement floor is used for on the daily but I've been to one of their book sales down there. Second floor has the computers for adults, more books, and a seed library.

They even have classes Study areas over looking water and nice group places. I wish it was something people knew more about, I try and tell everyone how nice it is. And all the events. I'll keep spreading the word.

I cannot compare this community center to others in Scottsdale, but it does remind me a bit of a community center where I grew up in Michigan and brings back many warm memories.
