Anyone lucky enough to discover the Lost Barrio these days will have stumbled onto one of Tucson's most surprising destinations: a three-block drag of red brick warehouses that looks decidedly out of place in this city of sun-baked stucco. The cool, cavernous spaces, a welcome respite from the heat, house the city's most unusual shopping district.

Renovated warehouses run along both sides of South Park Avenue in an area compact enough for strolling. Though mainly old warehouses with prettily worn facades, a few smaller storefronts are mixed in along the retail strip.

302 South Park is available as an art gallery and studio. Contact us for availability and rates.
