Since my goal is to energize the discussion about downtown Tucson's future, I want to hear your thoughts, your ideas, your opinions!
What's in your downtown Tucson burrito?
Why is downtown Tucson an adolescent instead of a fully-functioning adult? And is anything wrong with that?
What is your vision for downtown?

This is a great site and a fabulous project! Keep up the great work.
Hmmm.... why has Tucson's downtown struggled so long to "be all it can be"? I don't know. I've been in Tucson for 27 years. I like going to downtown restaurants, galleries, and music venues and used to live near downtown. I've seen Tucson's downtown die and rise again several times over the years. I thought the Downtown Saturday Nights and the efforts of the Tucson Arts District Partnership really helped spark interest in downtown. Too bad that group is no longer around. I hope that Rio Nuevo really will revive downtown.
i think we "die and rise again" because it's the desert and it's hot and people get excited and energized and then tired and hot... and the 'leaders' of tucson, of which there are relatively few, are laid-back. we're a sleepy dreamy town and there's nothing wrong with that ~m
If we really want some attention for downtown Tucson, we have to start some controversy. Let's infringe on some copyrights. Let's chant some inflammatory slogans. That way, when people do a search, we'll pop right up. They'll be disappointed at first, but they'll read about Tucson.
Free the whales! Border disputes! Free Beer! Bears for Everyone! you get the idea.
