Tucson
Well I'm here right now. I went downtown and wow. It just makes me really appreciate Minneapolis. Some things that Minneapolis could take from Tucson, I saw more people biking on the street instead of the sidewalk downtown. Also more bike corrals. Also a streetcar that I haven't even seen pass yet. I'll post some pictures when I arrive back
Re: Tucson
Downtown Tucson is in the midst of a major resurgence. It was the victim of massive urban renewal in the late 60's and languished terribly until about 10 years ago. Now its a pretty decent place to be and improving rapidly. I like the smaller scale of many of the streets. The streetcar is cool because you can get a 24 hr pass and hit up many of the places worth visiting at your leisure.
Towns!

Re: Tucson
It was. The restaurant we went to was so amazing. I cant even tell you what I had because the chef just rolled a dice. There were a lot of empty storefronts though... Dark spaces that were filled with some sketchy people. Kind of like on Nicollet mall, the empty spaces attract a bit of bad. It really reminds me of downtown Rochester actually.
