I think so. That cluster of highrises North of downtown. I just assumed it was called midtown, as that's what most multi-core cities seem to do.

Well it looks like the gays are doing better than most other communities then. I can see Phoenix being a nice place to visit (I wouldn't mind using it as a base for road trips throughout the SW, and I'd like to do some hiking in the area), but I'd be pretty concerned if I lived here full time. The amount of boarded up and for lease commercial properties is astonishing. It looked like one of the few old art deco highrises was also empty, unfortunately.
It seems like people put all their money into rims for their old Explorer or Blazer.
I also found that quite amazing - I've never seen so many vehicles with rims. I wouldn't be surprised if 10% of cars had fancy wheels on them.
