While 1st Street is under construction, we encourage our readers’ ongoing support of businesses there, including The Breadfruit, Sens Asian Tapas & Sake Bar and Turf Irish Pub.
The City of Phoenix will be repairing the concrete in the alley located between Central Ave. and 1st St. at McKinley St. from Monday, Oct. 3 through Friday, Oct. 7.
The alley serves as the driveway access to the Phoenix Public Market and Royal Coffee Bar. Access will blocked for the week, but both businesses will be open as usual.
Drivers accessing the Market’s parking lot will have to enter from Central Ave. – a one-way street heading north in that area – and Pierce St.
Our opinion? It’s worth the detour.
