The great Grand Canyon State offers plenty to do and see here whether you already own a home or if you’ve purchased Arizona real estate that you’re holding onto until you can build your dream home.
One city in Arizona that’s made the front page a lot lately is Glendale, and guests, sports-nuts and shoppers alike definitely appreciate what’s been going on in this all-grown-up former farming town. Located on the western edge of Phoenix, Glendale is home to several sports venues including the University of Phoenix Stadium where the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals play and the newly christened Camelback Ranch, Spring Training home to Major League Baseball’s Los Angeles Dodgers.
Similarly, shoppers love Glendale, since it is home to Westgate City Center’s bevy of high-end stores, nightclubs and restaurants. In addition, Westgate features a multiplex theatre, corporate offices, apartments and condominiums. Another one of Glendale’s most defining shopping assets is its Historic Downtown, an ultra-quaint area comprised of ten square-blocks of tree-lined streets, memory-lane merchants, bungalow boutiques and ethnic eateries. According to the Glendale Visitors Center, downtown is consistently ranked one of the top shopping districts in the country thanks to its wealth of antique stores and cozy shops that offer jewelry, art, crafts, collectables and bath and body accessories.
Another special place in downtown Glendale is The Bead Museum, a unique museum that houses an international collection of over 100,000 beads and beaded artifacts and features permanent and changing exhibitions. The Bead Museum also sells a wide range of bead-related publications as well as beads and supplies for the bead worker and specialist beads for the collector.
