Rail Life Pic Of The Week – Flying High at the Mill

June 19, 2011 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

For years, we’ve heard stories of what might be happening to the old flour mill in Tempe. In a fairly recent announcement, the city of Tempe said they have decided to temporarily turn it into an events venue. Thanks to some people at the city and from generous private donations, there will be new landscaping, […]

Advertising begins on Phoenix Light Rail

February 12, 2010 by Nick Bastian 4 Comments

We have thought advertising should in place for a long time. The “trial” light rail wraps for the NBA All Star Game were well done and people seemed to like them. Given all of the talk about budget cuts, this press release from Metro makes a lot of sense… METRO is open for advertising with […]

Fat Tuesday on Mill Rockin the Mardi Gras

February 5, 2010 by Nick Bastian 1 Comment

Fat Tuesday on Mill Avenue in Tempe has been around for 20 years! Why? Because they do things right. I’m pretty sure that our friends at Monti’s, are the only place along the Mill Avenue District that have been around longer.

Rail Life “Flickr Pic” of the week – That Lovin’ Feelin’

January 24, 2010 by Nick Bastian 3 Comments

Unfortunately, my ‘pic of the week” isn’t a very good shot of the Tyler Hurst, Yuri Artibise, Katie Charland rendition of You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’ from this past weekends CenPhoCamp. The quality of the picture doesn’t have nearly as much meaning as the song did to the opening of a GREAT “un-conference” where people […]

Chickens or eggs?

November 23, 2009 by Nick Bastian 5 Comments

For as long as I can remember, the rub on downtown Phoenix has been that it is deserted after dark. Why? Because there is “nothing” there.  Over the past couple of years we have slowly felt a “revitalization” of sorts that has given hope to some that this might be changing, and that we could […]
