The Carnegie Center
The Carnegie Center is a symbol of continuity. In an era when so many places
look alike, this unique building demonstrates the resilience and viability
of its neighborhood.
Today, the Carnegie Center is being returned to its role as a multi-service
center that will serve workers and residents in downtown Phoenix and the
eastern Capitol Mall.
HOURS
