Today, Phoenix still continues to expand, due to mass migration, and it has the distinction of being one of the fastest growing areas in the country. * Phoenix Then and Now looks at the development of the city, with historic photographs, placed side-by-side with contemporary views of the same locations that reveal a vibrant city, benefiting from wave upon wave of Easterners seeking sunshine in a culturally rich urban setting. * Amazing pictorial history of Phoenix, and the surrounding areas, filled with archival photographs of key locations paired with specially commissioned photographs of the same scenes as they are today. * See the Heard Building, used for the opening shot of Alfred Hitchcocks Psycho. One of Phoenixs first sky scrapers, the building is now used for stores and offices. * Featured landmarks include the Heard Building, the San Carlos Hotel, the Monahan Building, and the Orpheum Theatre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thunder Bay Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44945070948405,"sku":"ByrdShop_1592239692","price":91.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781592239696_87a8dec2-dc0e-45ed-a260-b1c1eb3150d0.jpg?v=1778913635","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/phoenix-then-and-now-9781592239696","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
