The City of Phoenix launched the Points of Pride program in 1991, which lists notable locations within the city limits. While I might take issue with some of the locations included, such as the Arizona Center, it’s hard to argue with most of them. In February 2018, I decided to adopt a quest to visit them all, though I’m giving myself credit for locations I’ve already been to in the past, as long as I had substantial or repeated visits to them.
