Eye on Travel — Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix –February 24, 2024

Locations in this article:  Phoenix, AZ
This week’s broadcast of Eye on Travel is from the Sonoran Desert and the legendary Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix, celebrating its 95th birthday this weekend. I have all the travel updates, and Mayor Kate Gallego discusses Phoenix’s growth and development as well as the city’s challenges, including the push to conserve water as a sustainable desert city. Historian Steven Schumacher tells the tale of the Phoenix pioneers and how the city continues to embrace its past and present within its culture. Richard D. Walter stops by from one of the more interesting museums many of you may not know — the Musical Instrument Museum — which includes the earliest guitar to be discovered. There’s all this and more on this week’s Eye on Travel.
