Heritage Square earns a fourth star in my book for being a historical landmark in Phoenix. But what exactly lives in Heritage Square? Let me tell you! Here, the Arizona Science Center, famous Pizzeria Bianco and Nobuou at Teeter House call this humble square home. The Arizona History Museum used to also live here, but now the Arizona Science Center is converting it to another part of their experiment.
Heritage Square has a comfortable feeling to it. As I walk through, I enjoy looking at the historical Rosson House. I've been through once and it's a nice little history lesson if you're looking for something to do. I also like how Heritage Square hosts a variety of festivals throughout the year. I wish they did more and took more advantage of the space, but the ones they do are nice.
What I like most about Heritage Square is the ambiance in the late afternoon as the sun is starting to set and the weather is breezy but warm. As I walk through, I look up and see the city surrounding me and it makes me appreciate Downtown Phoenix. Plus the architecture of the Science Center along with the historical buildings housing the restaurants and other museums add to the character of the square.
