Arizona Center

Arizona Center is a mixed-use complex in downtown Phoenix that houses retail spaces, offices, and entertainment venues across two towers of 19 and 20 floors. The development includes a 24-screen cinema and various restaurants spread throughout the property.

The complex opened in 1989 as a key part of Phoenix's downtown revitalization efforts during the late twentieth century. It helped transform the central business district by bringing together retail, office, and entertainment uses in a single location.

The plaza hosts regular community gatherings such as farmers markets and live performances that draw locals throughout the year. These events create a social meeting point where visitors can experience everyday downtown life.

The complex is centrally located and accessible by public transit or car, with ample parking available on-site. The layout connects all areas seamlessly, making it easy to move between shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues.

The plaza earned recognition from the American Society of Landscape Architects for its water features and garden design created by SWA Group. This attention to landscaping transforms what could be a simple commercial space into a more inviting environment.
