A major art hub in Phoenix, Roosevelt is alive with revitalized parks, distinct shops and local small businesses, topnotch restaurants, and Craftsman-style architecture.
Roosevelt Row, or “RoRo”, is a very walkable arts district filled with impressive sculptures, colorful murals, and art exhibits. During the first Friday of every month, locals are given the opportunity to immerse themselves in culture and art with the First Friday Art Walk.
Residents are encouraged to stroll through the studios and view the newest collections, sip cocktails, and mingle with the community artists.
When it comes to food on RoRo, the locals rave about the Dressing Room and its international street fare. The Japanese Friendship Garden is a serene, park-like setting that includes a koi pond, cascading waterfall, and tea garden – it’s the ideal place for meditation. The Valley Metro Rail connects residents to the airport’s sky train, zoo, and Desert Botanical Garden.
