Warehouse District
The Duce
Industrial buildings and warehouses that served Arizona’s citrus and cotton markets during the early 20th century have now blossomed into galleries, ateliers, restaurants and nightspots.

Arizona State University School of Art’s Step Gallery, an indoor-outdoor space tucked between warehouses, serves as both art gallery and event space.

Nearby, The Croft Downtown, a blank-slate warehouse, can be transformed into anything, thanks to event-designer owners Mark and Angela Karp.
EAT & DRINK

Sip Moscow Mules or Greyhounds at The Duce, an eclectic warehouse where you can also play pingpong or shop for workout attire.
