Standin' on the Corner Park

Standin' on the Corner Park is a public park in Winslow, Arizona, opened in 1999, commemorating the song "Take It Easy" which was written by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey and most famously recorded by Frey's band, the Eagles. The song includes the verse "Well, I'm a-standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona, and such a fine sight to see. It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me." The park contains a two-story trompe-l'œil mural by John Pugh, a Ford flatbed truck, and a bronze statue by Ron Adamson entitled "Easy" (which resembles Browne, but represents "the troubadour") who is standing on a corner with a guitar by his side. The park is surrounded by a wall of bricks, with windows to peer into; each brick has a donor's name on it, and a story by each of the donors describing their fondness for Winslow, Arizona. History Until the 1970s, Winslow was a thriving town in northern Arizona just off Route 66. When I-40 bypassed the community many local businesses disappeared, the tourism sector being among the hardest hit. While some local jobs remained (Winslow is the base of operation for nearly 1,000 railroad workers), the local downtown was badly hurt by the influx of national chains such as Walmart and McDonald's along the new interstate highway to the north of the town. Twenty years passed and Winslow was stuck in a commercial rut. The Standin' on the Corner Foundation was formed to create a renaissance of Winslow. Determined to build on tourism, the foundation took advantage of the town being mentioned in the song "Take It Easy" made famous by the Eagles. From 1997 until 1999, the foundation sought out donors and planned design concepts. On September 10 and 11, 1999 the park was opened to the public. On October 18, 2004, there was a fire at the Standin' on the Corner Park. While the face of the building and the actual corner survived, the rest of the building was burned down. The 2006 release of animated film Cars brought renewed attention to the efforts to save local U.S. Route 66 main street businesses in towns long bypassed. In September 2016, a statue was unveiled at the park in the likeness of Glenn Frey, who died earlier that year. References External links Official site

Stewart Mountain Dam

The Stewart Mountain Dam is a concrete thin arch dam located 41 miles northeast of Phoenix, Arizona. The dam is 1,260 feet (380 m) long, 207 feet (63 m) high, and was built between 1928 and 1930. The dam includes a 13,000 kilowatt (kW) hydroelectric generating unit that is operated by SRP (Salt River Project), an Arizona public utility. It is primarily operated during the summer months. The dam forms Saguaro Lake as it slows the passage of the Salt River in Maricopa County, Arizona. It was named after a ranch that used to be located nearby known as the Old Stewart Ranch. A camp was built just below the dam in 1927 to house the construction workers; after the damn's completion it was turned into the Saguaro Lake Guest Ranch. The dam was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.

Sun Mercantile Building

The Sun Mercantile Building (or "Sun Merc") is a warehouse building in Phoenix, Arizona designed by E.W. Bacon and constructed by Wells & Son in 1929. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 and has been a locally protected historic landmark since 1987. History Sun Merc is the last remaining building from Phoenix's "second Chinatown" period (c. 1890 – c. 1960). It is located directly next to the Talking Stick Resort Arena and is used by the Phoenix Suns. Preservation threat In the mid-2000s, plans were proposed to build a new $200 million luxury high-rise hotel and condominium tower, part of which would be atop the Sun Mercantile Building tearing off the roof and preserving only the base. Historic preservationists and the city's Asian-American community voiced their disapproval of the plans. However, the city council did not agree and the project was given the go ahead. A lawsuit was then filed in court and in the fall of 2007 a judge ruled that "the Phoenix City Council had improper talks with Sarver (the developer) before it decided the fate of the warehouse on the hotel site." and the project was effectively dead.

Bahnhof Tempe

Der Bahnhof Tempe mit seinem denkmalgeschützten Empfangsgebäude liegt in der Stadt Tempe im US-Bundesstaat Arizona. Er wird nicht für den Personenverkehr genutzt. Lage Der Bahnhof befindet sich in der Innenstadt von Tempe westlich Einmündung der Third Street in die Ash Avenue an der Phoenix Subdivision der Union Pacific Railroad. Geschichte und Architektur Ein erstes hölzernes Bahnhofsgebäude in Tempe brannte am 30. April 1923 ab. Der damalige Betreiber der Bahnstrecke, eine Tochtergesellschaft der Southern Pacific Railroad namens Arizona Eastern Railroad, erbaute daher 1924 für 11.000 US-Dollar den noch heute vorhandenen Bau in Ziegelbauweise. Neben einem Warteraum wurden auch Büros und Räume für Gepäck und Fracht geschaffen. Eröffnet wurde der Neubau am 15. Juni 1924. Als Architekt war das Architekturbüro Fitzhugh und Byron aus Phoenix beauftragt worden. Für den schnellen Wiederaufbau hatten sich Einwohner von Tempe eingesetzt, die sich sorgten, dass Tempe wegen des Verlustes des Bahnhofsgebäudes keinen Halt an der neuen Route der Southern Pacific erhalten würde. Die Southern Pacific hatte in den 1920er-Jahren unter Einbindung vorhandener Streckenabschnitte eine neue Verbindung zwischen Picacho und Wellton errichtet, die eine Führung ihrer Fernzüge zwischen Texas und Kalifornien über Phoenix erlaubte. Die gegenüber der weiterhin im Güterverkehr genutzten direkten Route zwischen Picacho und Wellton etwa 65 km längere Route wurde 1926 fertiggestellt. Mit dem Rückgang des Personenzugverkehrs nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg verfiel das Gebäude. 1985 erwarb die Stadt Tempe unter Nutzung von Bundesmitteln das Bahnhofsgebäude für 520.000 US-Dollar von der Southern Pacific Railroad, ließ es als Teil der Tempe Multiple Resource Area im National Register of Historic Places eintragen und schrieb seine Sanierung aus. 1988 erfolgte der Verkauf für 560.000 US-Dollar an Investoren, die in den späten 1980er Jahren das Restaurant Depot Cantina auf dem Bahnhofsgelände einrichteten. Im Jahr 1991 erwarb die Restaurantkette Macayo's, die Restaurants mit mexikanischer Küche betreibt, das Bahnhofsgebäude. Als entsprechendes Restaurant war das Gebäude bis Anfang 2020 in Nutzung. Von 1987 bis 1996 diente die Anlage als Haltepunkt der Amtrak. Der Betreiber der Bahnstrecke, die Southern Pacific Railroad, wurde 1996 durch die Union Pacific Railroad übernommen. Es gibt Pläne das Bahnhofsgebäude zu restaurieren und in einem Büro- und Hotelkomplex zu integrieren. Dabei soll es auf den baulichen Zustand von 1924 zurückgebaut werden.

Tempe station (Arizona)

Tempe station is a former train station in Tempe, Arizona. Previously, Amtrak's Sunset Limited and Texas Eagle trains stopped at the station, but they were shifted to a more southerly route in June 1996. However, an Amtrak Thruway shuttle route connects the station to the Maricopa station on the new routing. History The Southern Pacific Railroad built the depot in 1924. The city of Tempe purchased the building in 1987 and renovated it. The station was served by Amtrak's Sunset Limited and Texas Eagle from 1987 until June 3, 1996, when Amtrak was forced to re-route the trains due to deteriorated track conditions on the secondary Union Pacific Railroad line which diverged from the mainline to serve Phoenix and Tempe. Amtrak opened the Maricopa station to serve Phoenix, Tempe and the greater Central Arizona area. After Amtrak left the station, Macayo's Depot Cantina, a Mexican restaurant, was built on the site, but the historic train depot was untouched. On May 1, 2017, Amtrak started a new Amtrak Thruway shuttle service (operated by Stagecoach Express) connecting Tempe station and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport to Maricopa station. In the early 2000s, the area saw the construction of several new rail lines. In 2008, the A Line of the Valley Metro Rail & Streetcar system opened with light rail trains running parallel to the Union Pacific tracks, and curving east onto 3rd Avenue just north of the historic train depot. On May 20, 2022, the Valley Metro Streetcar opened, with southbound cars passing right by the station site. In January 2021, the city of Tempe approved a plan to redevelop the station site into a mixed-use development, which also will preserve and restore the train depot on the site. The development will include two towers: a 17-story office tower and a 18-story Hilton-branded hotel tower. The two towers will connect with a bridge over the light rail tracks. As of 2023, Amtrak is planning to restore train service to Tempe on a route between Phoenix and Tucson. The exact station location has yet to be determined.

Tempe Diablo Stadium

Tempe Diablo Stadium is a baseball park in the southwestern United States, located in Tempe, Arizona. It has been the spring training home of the Los Angeles Angels since 1993, and it is the home field for night games of the Arizona League Angels. History It was the spring training home of the Seattle Pilots in 1969 and 1970 (the Pilots moved to Milwaukee late in spring training, just days prior to the 1970 regular season), the Milwaukee Brewers in 1971 and 1972, and the Seattle Mariners from 1977 through 1992. The stadium was built in 1968 and has a seating capacity of 9,558, making it the oldest and smallest ballpark in the Cactus League. It underwent an extensive $20 million renovation from 2002 until 2006 and was rededicated on March 3, 2006. The renovation included the main stadium, the major league fields, and the Minor league complex on site. The Arizona Sports and Tourism Authority, a municipal corporation charged with funding renovations of Cactus League stadiums throughout Maricopa County, funded $12 million of the renovations. The Angels and the city government announced an agreement in May 2021 to keep the team's spring training in Tempe through at least 2035. The deal includes extensive renovations of the stadium and the surrounding complex, including a new home clubhouse, team offices, a team store and an outfield concourse. Tempe Diablo Stadium can be seen from the Maricopa Freeway. A small desert butte looms down the left field foul line. The stadium is also the site for the state of Arizona's high school baseball playoffs. References

Tempe Marketplace

Tempe Marketplace is an open-air shopping center located in Tempe, Arizona. It is located along the Salt River near the interchange of Loop 101 (the Pima/Price Freeway) and Loop 202 (the Red Mountain Freeway) near the Tempe borders with Mesa and the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community. History The center was developed by the Vestar Development Company (who is its owner and operator) and opened on September 28, 2007. The center covers nearly 1,300,000 square feet (120,000 m2) of retail space on 130 acres (0.53 km2) of land that was once a landfill considered so toxic, it was put on the U.S. E.P.A. Superfund List in 1983. It was removed 20 years later. During initial development, collaboration between the developers and the City of Tempe was required to acquire land from 52 individual lot owners for the shopping center, which resulted in the largest Brownfield land cleanup in the history of Arizona. Tempe Marketplace features over 100 retailers, complete with outdoor fireplaces, water features, and landscaping. There are two distinct areas for shopping and dining at the center: an outer ring of “Big Box” retailers, and the central area of smaller shops and eateries called “The District.” In the center of The District is a large courtyard with a stage, where various local and national musical acts have performed free concerts, such as Borns, Power an 5000, Buckcherry, Pop Evil, The Struts, Dreamers (band), Jet (Australian band), Trapt, Drowning Pool, and many others. There is also a large LED video screen which shows local sports teams and other special events to passersby. Many tall plants, shade structures, and misters help control the climate during the summers, and pedestrian walkways and other retail pads connect all areas. The Harkins Theatre in The District is a 16-screen multiplex with 604 seats in its Cine Capri theater, which was the host to the worldwide premieres of both X-Men Origins: Wolverine and Only the Brave.
