Historic adobe homes -- mixed with sleek, modern apartment and office buildings -- fill Downtown Tucson. Colorful murals adorn the sides of some of the buildings, adding an artistic flair to this sunny neighborhood. Downtown Tucson is home to the Tucson Museum of Art, the Fox Theatre, the University of Arizona Museum of Art, The Children's Museum Tucson, MOCA Tucson, and several art galleries.
With the University of Arizona located just outside of Downtown Tucson, the neighborhood attracts college students. It is a walkable and bicycle-friendly neighborhood, and the Sun Link streetcar provides a fun, fast way to get from the university into downtown and beyond.
The heart of Downtown Tucson is Congress Street, a historic area with a variety of exciting destinations. John Dillinger hid out in Hotel Congress, built in 1919, and some residents claim the hotel is haunted.
