The main shops are nestled between
freeways and the UP right-of way by Sky Harbor Airport. The freeways
around it are the main east entrance freeway to Sky Harbor to the south,
AZ-202 to the east, AZ143 to the west, and UP to the north. Light Rail
access is from Washington St. It must climb over the UP then descend
quickly into the yards and shop.
Trackage
is in place leading to the mains yards and shops for the system near
the Airport. View is from Washington St, AZ-202 is to the left.
