It’s great the area holds its own being completely organic but a shame it doesn’t have a cultural juggernaut to cement its permanence. Or an attraction beyond a night out.

Because their bean counters look at a radios map of incomes and Scottsdale has much more dolleridoos to spend at a much larger scale than around downtown.
Doesn't matter that the highest income neighborhoods in the metro are to the north and Northeast
The western and southern areas of the metro within that radios pull the average down.
So the city planning department needs to work to overcome that information but of course as we know Phoenix P& Dev sucks
