Glendale, Arizona

Jun. 14, 2006 03:03 PM

Glendale boasts a population of nearly 200,000 and is Arizona's fourth-largest city. Capitalizing on its history, the city has recently transformed itself into a turn-of-the-century "old town." The resulting influx of specialty shops to downtown Glendale earned it a reputation as "Arizona's Antique Capital." The downtown area features original 100-year-old brick storefronts garnished with shady awnings, benches and brick sidewalks lined with quaint gaslight lamps. The picturesque Catlin Court District, a four-block area distinguished by tea rooms in converted century-old bungalows, was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. Glendale is located northwest of Phoenix, about 25 minutes from Sky Harbor International Airport.
