Fifth Street is a neighborhood of repurposed homes in Downtown Phoenix located east of Central Ave a

Fifth Street is currently home to The Lost Leaf, Buried Treasures, Melt Ice Cream, Bud's Glass Joint, and Made. Fifth Street is known for being a gathering place of college students, artists, writers, poets, musicians, community organizers, activists, politicians, food service entrepreneurs, and travelers. The street has been featured on several television programs because of it's innovative and groundbreaking murals, business models, and community programs. Joey G, a creative engineer that has worked at several of the businesses on Fifth Street was once quoted by CNN as saying, "there's no reason why there should not be 100 people on this street at any given time, 24 hours a day." Today, the businesses that are open cater to a wide range of entertainment, culture, food, information and services while remaining friendly to pet owners, cyclists, and vegetarians. Many artists have been spotted on this street, including (but not limited to) Murs, Stevie Nicks, Saul Williams, 2Mex, Sean Bonnette, Isaac Brock, Kate Nash and Amanda Palmer. Fifth Street is located within the umbrella of Roosevelt Row. Roosevelt Row has been a vital mixed use area from the earliest days of the establishment of Phoenix. Many of the concrete sidewalks in the neighborhood were poured in 1909, three years before Arizona officially became the 48th State. In the early 1940s, when there were approximately 30,000 people living in Phoenix, numerous businesses were established along Roosevelt Street. The flower shop at Fifth Street and Roosevelt has been in continuous operation since 1948. Fifth Street has been home of Aside of Heart Vegan Cafe, Lawn Gnome Publishing, Longhouse Studios, 5th St Paint Supply, Mike Little Gallery, Think! Graphics, Take 6 Gallery, Jobot Coffee Shop, Missconstrued Boutique, Of The Earth, Nachobot, Rezbot, Bodega 420, and Spread The Weird Studios.

Read this article from Phoenix New Times and decide if Jimbo Reid was crazy or spot-on. What do you think about Roosevelt Row's change in the last two years? What will it look like in 3 more years?

Jimbo Reid is pi**ed off. He's mad that there aren't any "cute chicks" today in Jobot, a coffee shop in an old house on Fifth Street. He's angry that the guy he's talking to on Jobot's cracked front porch keeps asking him about gentrification. He's fuming because the latte he...

Creative bike racks were abundant on 5th Street. The Lost Leaf had a buried park bench in their front yard, Hoodride had a variety of tacked and wire-tied racks around the perimeter, and Lawn Gnome Publishing made this 2x4 and window-guard rack before the City followed through with development plans and Grid Bikes came to the area. Which do you prefer for your community? When was your last bike stolen?
