A BRIEF HISTORY OF MIDTOWN PHOENIX A Brief History of Midtown Phoenix. We’re all doing our part to #FlattenTheCurve by practicing social distancing. Since we’ve all been in our homes lately, why not use this opportunity to come together virtually to learn a thing or two? On Tuesday 24 March 2020 at 7:00pm (Phoenix time), I’ll hop online to deliver my lecture, ABrief
SELECTED PROJECTS
Authors G.G. George and Leigh Conrad collaborated to write the definitive history of Phoenix’s Greater Encanto-Palmcroft Neighborhood. Their book shared the humble beginnings of one of Phoenix’s first suburban enclaves, the adjacent State Fair Grounds, and the efforts of neighborhood advocates to prevent these neighborhoods from being trashed by highways in the 1960s and 1970s. BEHIND THE WEATHER DASHBOARD Behind the Weather Dashboard. The second COVID-19 vaccine knocked me out for a couple of days, so while I was recuperating from that, I created a Grafana dashboard with data from my weather station. The station is perched atop a building in midtown Phoenix. The dashboard is still quite a work in progress, but I’m pleased thus far with howit

TAG: A BRIEF HISTORY OF MIDTOWN PHOENIX When I prepared my midtown Phoenix history lecture last year, A Brief History of Midtown Phoenix, one of the things that I wanted to do was to learn more about the full history of the Phoenix Indian School, which most Phoenicians know only as a giant park in the middle of Phoenix with a dog park and where they launch fireworks on July 4.With a few exceptions, most contemporary history STEELE INDIAN SCHOOL PARK After the Phoenix Indian School closed, the land sat vacant for many years. The City of Phoenix adopted a Master Plan for a park to go on the Phoenix Indian School site in 1993, and the park opened in 2001 as Steele Indian School Park.

Little Canyon Trail is the perfect embodiment of that connected oasis and of all of the major themes of the General Plan.

Authors G.G. George and Leigh Conrad collaborated to write the definitive history of Phoenix’s Greater Encanto-Palmcroft Neighborhood. Their book shared the humble beginnings of one of Phoenix’s first suburban enclaves, the adjacent State Fair Grounds, and the efforts of neighborhood advocates to prevent these neighborhoods from being trashed by highways in the 1960s and 1970s.

There’s a very bad plan that’s being considered by the City of Phoenix: to hand over Little Canyon Park and Little Canyon Trail in northwest Phoenix to the private Grand Canyon University (GCU) because, well, they asked nicely?

BEHIND THE WEATHER DASHBOARD The second COVID-19 vaccine knocked me out for a couple of days, so while I was recuperating from that, I created a Grafana dashboard with data from my weather station . The station is perched atop a building in midtown Phoenix. The dashboard is still quite a work in progress, but I’m pleased thus far with how it’s comingalong.
For those who aren’t in the IT world, Grafana is a software platform that creates visual dashboards from various sources, including time series databases (TSDBs). TSDBs work by
collating discrete metrics over time, and they’re usually found in the world of information technology. Instead of network I/O or CPU usage, the principle works for weather statistics: At this time, it was this temperature or the wind speed was that.

Join me on Fridays as I share discoveries and new things Over this past year of COVID-19 lockdowns, I’ve taken the opportunity to re-conceptualize my personal (and business) IT portfolio. Prior to the pandemic, I was rather haphazard about things. Even though I espoused the benefits of having a master plan and having things fit into that plan, in practice for my personal IT estate at least, it was a different story. I focused on getting things stood up quickly rather than robustly. It worked, but it sometimes incurred aprice.

STEELE INDIAN SCHOOL PARK In light of our collective cultural conversations about public space, midtown Phoenix’s Steele Indian School Park must be a part of it.Here’s why
When I prepared my midtown Phoenix history lecture last year, _A Brief History of Midtown Phoenix_,
one of the things that I wanted to do was to learn more about the full history of the Phoenix Indian School, which most Phoenicians know only as a giant park in the middle of Phoenix with a dog parkand
where they launch fireworks on July 4. With a few
exceptions, most contemporary history books of Phoenix and its urban history tend to gloss over the site. I should mention that I don’t intend this to be the last word in scholarship on the site. There are many more people who have reported on the history of not only the Phoenix Indian School but the issues with Indian schools nationwide. The point of this essay is to contribute to a dialogue that should be had about the challenges that this site has, especially in the broader contexts of the urban Phoenix moment and the cultural conversations happening about how we memorialize our history and interact with public space.

METROCENTER PHOTOS
On June 24, prior to its closing, I traveled up to Metrocenter to take some final photos. Here are a few of them Prior to its closing next week, I thought I’d make one final trip to Metrocenter to see it before the lights turn off for good June 30. I grew up close to this mall and visited it more than I probably care to admit in the 1990s. I wrote an appreciation essay on Metrocenter earlier this week, which I invite you to read first before viewing thephotos.
One of the main entrances to the mall building Current and former retailers I never appreciated it until now, but the former Robinson’s / Macy’s store (now a U-Haul?) has a definite New Formalism aestheticto it.
A detached Walmart replaced the former Broadway in 2016-2017 The former JCPenney (and before that, Dillard’s, Joske’s, and Rhodes) is now a self-storage. Note the symmetry of the building (the black glass is/was an elevator) Another mall entranceSears (closed 2018)
From the north, the Sears was a box on top of a plinth If you didn’t know already This sticker was still on the door of the Sears Now we go inside. You can see elements of the original architecture but also the postmodern nonsense they put on top of it Another interior shot. This is the east-west corridor Even the security guards are mailing it in The Dillard’s clearance outlet is now only accessible from the outside, but the atrium still shows some of the original 1973architecture

METROCENTER (1973-2020), AN APPRECIATION The closure of north-central Phoenix’s Metrocenter was announced. Some final thoughts on what was and what might be with the space The big Phoenix news story over the past weekend is that the closure was announced of Metrocenter (1973-2020),
the struggling shopping center in north-central Phoenix. The mall will close at the end of June after 47 years of operation. Although this news is not surprising to hear, it is still a bit of a shock to hear the finality of it. The mall opened in 1973 with a record-setting five anchor store positions and 1.4 million square feet of retail space on two floors. For those who came of age in Phoenix in the 70s, 80s, and 90s, it was the place to see and be seen. It reached new appreciation in the 1980s when Metrocenter stood in for a mall in southern California in the 1989 science fiction film, _Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure_.
