I can't wait untill 1 east broadway, green line, the armory and west end station

I agree with you, Ritarancher. Downtown Tucson still has a very long way to go but compared to the previous 5 years or so, it's 1000 times better. Even with all the construction, there's more people visiting downtown after work and weekends.
Cadence isn't finished and too early to judge but I think it's headed to a disaster in terms of it's design. Of course, they could always paint some murals or even add some wall sculptures like the Old County Courthouse to save it.
I wished TEP would look like this,
