The area is undergoing a revitalization that is transforming the old neighborhoods into a vibrant residential district.

Downtown apartments can be found among the old Spanish homes and mansions, and are within walking distance to area cultural sites, shopping and attractions. Popular attractions near downtown apartments and condos in Tucson include the Art Deco Fox Theater, St. Augustine Cathedral, and the Old Pima Country Courthouse. Spend the afternoon exploring the Old Town Artisans Gallery, or stroll through the Tucson Museum of Art and Historic Block to see the works of area artisans. The historic Rialto Theatre in downtown Tucson is a popular destination for locals and visitors alike; head here to catch the latest live music performances from national and local artists, or just take a tour of the grounds to learn about this beautiful historic site.

Downtown Tucson is also home to several community events and cultural festivals throughout the year. Enjoy the annual International Film Festival in the Spring, socialize with the neighbors for the Halloween block party, or head out to the wine lounges and dive bars scattered throughout the downtown area for a fun night on the town. Shopping and entertainment opportunities abound in nearby midtown Tucson.

Midtown, a short drive from most downtown apartments, is home to Reid Park, Broadway Village Shopping Center and the Arizona Stadium. Downtown Tucson boasts the perfect balance of history, culture and modernity, and downtown apartments are within a short walk or drive from numerous attractions and historic sites. The parks, dining options and cultural venues offer plenty of options for all types of residents.
