Gazing Skyward

 

I pointed my camera up once again to capture some tall buildings and interesting architecture in downtown Phoenix.  My friends Julie & Dave work in one of those two towers to the right.  The buildings are connected by a skywalk.

This building has housed many different offices in the past but I see that Arizona State University has started occupying a large amount of office space.  ASU's downtown campus has grown substantially over the last few years.

The Luhrs Tower in downtown Phoenix is one of my favorite historic buildings.  It dates to 1929 and was built in Art Deco style which I love.  I did two posts about this building back in 2017.  You can see them here and here.

  1. I always find the older buildings like the Luhrs Tower more interesting to look at. It's the engravings that attract me.

  2. I love tall buildings. My one disappointment with DC, is it is short. Few buildings in the city are over 12 stories.

  7. I like downtown Phoenix. I've been in one of those newer buildings, although it was a number of years ago. Nicely photographed!
