    The Reincarnation Tour:  Reuse is the Ultimate Recycle

     

    Join friends of architecture, food and fun Saturday March 24 on The Reincarnation Tour, a celebration of reused buildings experiencing new life in the Central Corridor.  This free, self-guided tour starts at 11:00 a.m. with a 1-hour community forum on Adaptive-Reuse at FilmBar, a recent downtown reuse project at 815 N. 2nd Street.  Then from 12-5 p.m., revel in the good karma of locally-owned restaurants, coffee shops, and retailers with special offers, spirits and entertainment all accessible by light rail or bike.   With passport in hand, experience the  community transformation taking place at the Phoenix Public Market, Roosevelt Row, Giant Coffee, Lux Central, the St. Francis and more.  Hosted by the state component of the American Institute of Architects.  For more information, visit http://aia-arizona.org/2012/02/16/march-is-eco-month/.
