Roosevelt Row
Roosevelt Row is the stretch where Phoenix decided it was allowed to have an arts district. Murals on every west-facing wall, First Fridays that still pull a crowd, and a bar-to-gallery ratio that flatters a second date. The walkability is real between Roosevelt and McKinley, which in this city counts as a miracle. The tradeoff is that the edges fray fast, rents have chased out some of the artists who made the brand, and the new mid-rises are sanding down the grit that was the whole point. Still, for a Phoenix date that does not require a car between drinks, RoRo is the move.
