Rail Life “Flickr Pic” Of The Week – Revisiting The Orpheum Lofts

October 3, 2010 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

This past week, I took another trip to the Orpheum Lofts in Phoenix and was able to snap a few more pics of this cool building and it’s pool, conference room, steam room, and patio area. I love the look of this “old” building in downtown Phoenix. The architecture of this residential building stands out […]

Score One For Living Green

August 18, 2010 by Rail Life 1 Comment

There are many ways to define green living and the reasons for people wanting to live a more green lifestyle can vary greatly. For some, it’s about saving the Earth and for others, it’s about saving some cash. Obviously, it can be both. In the past, I have mentioned how cool I think the “Walk […]

Selling Drugs ( And More ) On The Light Rail

July 27, 2010 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

So, the big grand opening at the new CityScape CVS Pharmacy was this week and a whole slew of paparazzi, politicians and local folk gathered to celebrate the occasion. It was interesting to talk with some of the people that came to the opening. For the politicians and super-cool movers and shakers it seemed to […]

June 17, 2010 by Nick Bastian 8 Comments

Today’s groundbreaking ceremony for the Apache ASL Trails 55 and over deaf community was quite an eye opening experience.

Red Rox Condominiums – Neighborhood Spotlight

April 26, 2010 by Nick Bastian Leave a Comment

The Red Rox Condominium complex in Phoenix has come up in several conversations lately. While it isn’t exactly right on the light rail line, it appears to be close enough for many. Red Rox is about one mile from the Priest and Washington light rail station, and approximately 1.5 miles from the 44th Street and […]

Find Your Housing + Transportation Affordability Factor

April 17, 2010 by Nick Bastian 4 Comments

This past week, I attended part of the sustainable living conference at the Tempe Transit Center where some true transit geeks talked policy, lifestyle, and awareness of a more green world.
