    I stumbled across the Heritage Square area while walking back to my hotel and I am so glad I did. It was later in the evening so everything was closed, but it was still nice to see!

    Nice area across Arizona state university. There's not that much going on but I can see the beauty used for events like weddings. I really liked the little visitor center with the cashier, info and the carriage. Paid parking only in the street. And they tow if you don't pay attention to parking in an actual spot.

    Historic Heritage Square is in the old town site for Phoenix. It is very near Arizona State University. I took a look around. Pretty cool place to explore. Plenty of museums, shops, restaurants in here. Also certainly a place to also have a wedding if you want to. If I had been in the Phoenix area longer, I would have explored this area more thoroughly.

    I wish I came by when there was a festival or some event going on. It's a cute little area. I'm glad I didn't make a special trip to come here, rather it was on a way to a restaurant nearby. I love seeing old architecture and admiring charming buildings.

    This little area is absolutely lovely! I enjoyed my ice cream pop from The Bungalow. Mango flavor is delish! Note: The store has adorable items! I also enjoyed grabbing a pizza at Pizzeria Bianco. There is a lovely coffee shop also in the area that I went to on a different visit (Royal). Looking around the area, you will see some great architecture, comfortable places to sit, and a few shops/food places to explore.

    The more I visit downtown Phoenix the more I fall in love. The history is rich here. It's always a pleasant surprise to find a place so beautiful hidden amongst all the high rises and traffic. Nestled next to the science center these beautiful grounds hold not only the Rosson House built in 1895, beautiful grounds, carriage house turned gift shop, Teeter Tea House , and much more. There any many shaded areas and flowers. Great place to relax in the early morning hours. One of my favorite things is the awesome little free library up against the brick backdrop.

    Interesting and historic part of downtown Phoenix that I had yet to explore. I came here with some friends to check out the flea market; local vendors selling their goods. It was perfect as Christmas is right around the corner. Some good restaurants are in the area as well as coffee shops. It's easy to get to from the light rail and it's central to other goodies in downtown. Fun place to check out and cross of the list.

    This venue is a gem for those getting married in Phoenix. It's close to downtown, which means so are photo opportunities, but more importantly it's convenient and easy to find great accommodations nearby. Also, you don't even have to go anywhere else as there is such a great array of spots right at this venue for great photo ops. Whether you prefer the old brick building charm or maybe even the clean, minimal concrete look the nearby Science Center provides. One of my favorite venus to photograph weddings.

    My brother, who's visiting from Vancouver, was standing around minding his own business in Heritage Square earlier today. We were checking out the annual India Diwali Festival taking place there. Suddenly, he sees yours truly stick his hand out to greet some random guy who was walking by and then turn to him and say, "[Bro], this is Phil Gordon, the mayor of Phoenix." Suddenly star-struck, my brother whimpered out a nervous high-pitched "uh, hi" and gave him what he himself says was a dead-fish handshake. We laughed, hard, as he later told me he didn't appreciate my ambushing him with a political figure when all he wanted to do was eat some samosas and look for cute Indian chicks. Anyway, Heritage Square is a cool little city space where many of the Valley's ethnic communities hold their annual celebrations and festivals. Before India it was Thailand. And I think Japan is coming up within the next few months. It's a great way to sample ethnic foods and just chill out on a Sunday afternoon. You can also wander off to the adjacent Phoenix Museum of History or Arizona Science Center, or check out the old historical homes in the square itself. Not to mention dine at Pizzeria Bianco or Circa 1900 if you're there around dinner time. There is an on-line calendar of events if you want to plan ahead. [EDIT: Up-coming community festivals include Japan, Korea, Hawaii, and Taiwan]

Every other experience here has been great no complaints, however this last visit was odd. We had an odd interaction with the valet attendant so I wanted to provide feedback to management and I approached a woman and she identified herself as a manager, later to find out her name was Phoebe, while I was speaking Phoebe was holding laughter back. She was laughing at me while I was talking. I was so appalled I had to walk away so I didn't embarrass myself by getting loud bc it was just so inappropriate and RUDE. Now let's get to the room, it appeared clean but then we realized that it wasn't, like maybe it wasn't flipped over completely by the housekeeper, the bed appeared cleaned and made but when we climbed in after our dinner and drinks there was sand in it. We had to sleep on the towels from the bathroom because it was too late to ask them for a new room. The next morning I called for clean extra towels and they never arrived. The blow dryer offered by the hotel is a Whisper 1200, I mean Hyatt come on every other hotel brand has upgraded to a normal size dryer.... Now let's talk about how the outlet in the bathroom didn't even work so we couldn't get ready for our brunch at the hotel because the dryer only worked by the lamp and there was no mirror except in the bathroom. We mentioned to the clerk at the front desk later what happened and they didn't seem to mind that we're inconvenienced. A manager appeared to be standing near the young check out clerk but she pretended to look busy so as not to have to engage, not sure. The whole stay was odd. Except the B&B bartender who was really nice and they had a great guitar player in the outdoor bar. We enjoyed that part. Oh and the Compass Room meal was 10/10! 5 Stars! We loved it!

    Civic Space Park - Outdoor Sculpture

    Civic Space Park

    (25 reviews)

    Whenever I visit the ASU Downtown Campus, I always find myself walking through the Civic Space…read morePark. This is a park with a lot of potential as there is a nice grassy area, some tables and chairs next to the US Post Office and ASU Student Center, a beautiful sculpture, and other places to hold an event and escape from the heat. At the same time, the Civic Space Park in recent years has been overrun with the homeless who find their own spaces on the east side of the park and sometimes elsewhere in the park. This has led to some safety concerns from ASU students and their families as many students have to walk across the park to get from the Sun Devil Fitness Complex or the Fusion on First upper-division residence hall across to the rest of the ASU Downtown Campus. There have also been a number of altercations over the last few years between multiple homeless and occasionally between a homeless person and a student. I have seen groups of students and even community members holding events in the park either in front of the Student Center entrance at the tables and chairs (gatherings by students or staff), on the grassy lawn area (community members playing soccer, frisbee, or having a picnic), or even on the south side of the walkway (though the lighting wasn't very good in the evening in that area). Again, it may be a challenge if some of the homeless community members try to engage at these events with the students, staff, and/or community members. Another challenge we learned is that it isn't the role of ASU Police or Phoenix Police to monitor the park. Rather there are park rangers who are responsible for doing so, which adds some complications as the rest of the ASU campus is supported by ASU Police and on occasion, by Phoenix Police. If you look at other reviews of Civic Space Park, it is difficult to find one that doesn't highlight the famous sculpture known as "Her Secret is Patience." In fact, I recall doing a photo shoot about 12 years ago under the sculpture at Civic Space Park. This sculpture is a public art sculpture commission that was designed for the city of Phoenix. The sculpture consists of painted, galvanized steel, polyester twine netting, and colored lights. Again, the space has a lot of potential though due to safety reasons, there is some work to be done to really prepare this park to meet its full potential.

    Nice park to just hang out at. Lots of grassy area for kids or animals to run through…read more We just sat there for a while soaking up the sun and people watching. At night the tornado looking thing lights up.
