It’s always a good idea to choose a Phoenix self-storage facility somewhere near your home or work, so it’s easy to pop in whenever you need to. We’re on the southwest corner of Camelback Road and 83rd Avenue, which makes us smack-dab in the middle of everything. However, if you’re looking to coordinate a fun activity on the way to or from your unit (or you want to reward yourself for a move well-done), here are three amusing activities that are close by. 1. The Glendale Drive-In During the day, the lot operates as a public market, or a swap meet of sorts. You can find anything you might want, including fresh produce. When the valley cools off at night, the lot converts into a drive-in movie theater. The Glendale 9 Drive-In shows all kinds of great flicks, including new releases. It’s a true theater experience, complete with a snack bar that serves goodies. Take the kids, have a date with your sweetheart, or go alone. No matter who you visit with, it’s great way to unwind. 2. The Westgate Entertainment District A few miles to the northwest of us, you’ll find the Westgate Entertainment District. If you’re not familiar with the area, it’s like nothing you’ve ever seen. A large section of it is occupied by University of Phoenix Stadium, which was where the 2015 Super Bowl was held. There is always something happening there, be it a game, a concert, or some other form of entertainment. The district also has tons of shopping, restaurants, and movies. Plus there’s a splash pad in case you bring the kids along. On the other hand, it is Phoenix. Nobody is going to look at you strange if you take a run through the water to cool off as well. 3. The Metrocenter Mall To the northeast, you’ll find Metrocenter Mall, which was actually the largest mall in the whole United States when it was built. Like the Westgate Entertainment District, it’s a total hub of activity. You’ll find stores of every type, food, and entertainment. One of the most-unique venues is Castles ‘n Coasters. They have rides, games, an arcade, four mini-golf courses, and all kinds of other exciting things to do. There’s always something going on close by our facility, even when the weather is scorching. If you’re in the area and you’d like to hear more about our Phoenix self-storage options, give us a call or stop by. Message brought to you by US Storage Centers in Phoenix, AZ.
