It was an unusually busy Friday night in downtown Phoenix last week during NCAA Men's Final Four activities. As visitors and residents alike headed to the Fan Fest at the Phoenix Convention Center and the March Madness Music Festival at Margaret T. Hance Park, still others came downtown for the monthly First Friday artwalk.
Although the portion of Roosevelt Street that is usually closed to car traffic each First Friday was open, a smaller but dedicated crowd still filled the sidewalks, eateries, bars and galleries.
Here's what we saw.
