Water Feature

The Valley Commerce Center is a central Phoenix office building that has an unusual water feature. The water spreads out in a Y shape as the office building wraps around it. That round building in the center houses a small cafĂ© that is virtually an island within the “pond”. This is where I found a stand of cattails growing. Tomorrow I’ll show more things I saw at this location.

  1. I wonder if the water helps to cool things down.

  2. This would not have been my guess from yesterday's teaser. It's amazing the things one finds in the middle of Phoenix. :)

  3. If this is the building on 7th Street between Central and Highland, I think this is the location of celebrated chef Eddie Matney's restaurant in the 1980's, before he moved to Camelback & 24th, which was before he moved to his current location in Scottsdale at Indian School and Marshall Way.

  5. I would have guessed the zoo. I would have been wrong. It's nice to see a little oasis like this in the middle of all the concrete.

  6. I was guessing a park was where you found your cattails! Never would have guessed this spot!
