Rail Life Pic Of The Week – Encore on Farmer Update

July 24, 2011 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

I was with some friends in Tempe on Friday night and we somehow brought up the Mill Avenue District. ( shocking, I’m sure ) When Encore on Farmer was brought up, there was a “I didn’t even know about that” statement. It reminded me that I had been sent a copy of the rendering for […]

So, we are headed in to a big 4th of July weekend. Watching the fireworks at Tempe Beach Park is sure to be a big hit for a LOT of people. For hundreds of residents living near the shores of Tempe Town Lake, watching the fireworks displays could be as easy as looking out of […]

Phil Gordon Rockin’ The Rail Life Via Chateau On Central

June 29, 2011 by Rail Life 3 Comments

It sounds like Phil Gordon isn’t too worried about finding a job next January. In fact, he must be pretty sure that his measly $80k salary as the Mayor of Phoenix is going to increase by just a little bit. According to azcentral, Mayor Gordon is the first one to step up to the plate […]

Will Arizona’s Aging Residents Face Poor Transportation Options?

June 15, 2011 by Rail Life 3 Comments

I recently read another interesting report from our friends at Arizona PIRG. This time, they are discussing the aging population in the Phoenix area, particularly the needs of elderly people to have access to affordable public transportation. As we mentioned recently, we have seen increased demand for affordable housing along the line. While the younger […]

Luxurious Strokes For Luxurious Folks

June 6, 2011 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

What kind of home can a couple of million bucks buy? Well, around here, it’s usually pretty darn nice. Despite what some news outlets are reporting, not all of the news on the luxury home front is bad news. In fact, the rental market for luxury properties in the $10k per MONTH range is said […]

Boost For Affordable Living Near Light Rail

June 2, 2011 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

They say smart people know where to invest their money. In our current real estate market, people hear conflicting stories all the time. One article says we are stabilizing or even improving, the next says we have room to drop further. One thing that seems consistent is the old “location, location, location” saying that has […]

Smart Money Leaving The Car Behind?

May 14, 2011 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

So, the price of oil recently dropped a bit, right? I don’t see a bunch of people ready to jump for joy over the current price of gas. What I have seen and heard is more and more people, from many walks of life, deciding to at least “try” to be less dependent on driving […]
