The key note lecture to kick off the week was held at the Leo Rich Theater in the Tucson Civic Center Complex. The talk was concerning the legacy of Urban Renewal, and questioning the various rationales for its preservation. A 575 seat, fan theater, with a comfortable scale, an elegant lobby (with dramatic lighting through lights and clerestories), and cozy theatrics. The exterior exhibit brutalism and monumentality, composed of smooth poured-in place concrete and rough concrete block. The project was a joint venture between Tucson firms in 1971: Cain Nelson Wares & Cook, and Friedman Jobusch.

FINALLY old enough to drink here!! Went here when it opened back in the early 90s, but I was under 21. Then, the family moved away and I didn't return for a visit until 2015. This brewbup was converted from an old municipal bus maintenance barn in downtown Chattanooga. The area has been revitalized as a tourist overnight for tourists transiting from the Midwest to Florida.
