Downtown Scottsdale - New Videos, Fun Facts, and Home Reports

July 19th, 2008 by Dru Bloomfield · 1 Comment

Downtown Scottsdale is on a roll. A couple months ago I wrote about the Fashion Square and Southgate videos.

And now there are four more video updates to add to the collection:

Old Town Scottsdale - An eclectic mix of shops, with an old west flavor.  Many of the shop buildings were built in the 1920’s.

The Waterfront - The “new” west, south of Fashion Square, and north of 5th Avenue.

Scottsdale’s Fifth Avenue - Steeped in history, shops, studios, and restaurants with an eclectic feel

Downtown Arts District - Galleries, the Art Walk, and the renovated Valley Ho

If you’d like to see the previous videos:
