I met my friends David and Riley for dinner Saturday night at a new place in downtown Phoenix that we hadn't tried before. It is located on Roosevelt Row, that very trendy arts district in downtown. Standing just outside the restaurant, I was struck by the 'big city' look of all the tall buildings lit up at night. That combined with the very busy traffic and the crowds of people walking in the area made Phoenix feel like a big city indeed.
After dinner we walked along Roosevelt Row and admired all the new bars and restaurants that have cropped up recently. We picked a few that we need to try sometime soon.
Phoenix is a big city of course, but it is mostly composed of a vast urban sprawl. It feels quite different when you are in an area of high density for both residents and businesses. I like that feeling.
