South Mikes Pike
Housed in the 1925 Milium Building — a former steam laundry that served Flagstaff's hospitals and hotels for nearly 70 years. After sitting empty and "downright creepy" for decades, it was reborn in 2014 as a craft brewery named for the road it sits on.

South San Francisco Street
Discover the Basque community that helped transform Flagstaff's Southside. The handball court was built the same year Route 66 was commissioned. Route 66 didn't just move goods and tourists — it moved people, and the Basque story is proof.
