Each week, Jackalope Ranch brings you a free event, workshop, or you-name-it happening in Phoenix. Because sometimes the best things in life really are free. This week's freebie: Open House at Roosevelt Point.

Big things are happening at Roosevelt Row -- big, two-tower, 7- and 8-story, 326-unit things. Roosevelt Point, the future apartment complex located off Roosevelt Row between 3rd and 4th streets is making its debut open house this Tuesday from 6 to 9 p.m..

The living space catering to students attending the downtown campuses of Arizona State University and the University of Arizona isn't set to open till August but that isn't stopping joint-owners EdR and Concord Eastridge from giving future renters and retailers (the ground lobby will provide 7,500 square feet of retail space) a sneak preview of the building and its amenities (spoiler alert: they plan on having a tanning dome. Yes, a tanning dome.)

Roosevelt Point's first open house will offer free food, drink, entertainment, and all-night giveaways including a free iPad Mini. For more information visit Roosevelt Point online or check out the Open House Facebook Event.
