  • The Tower District RULES!!! That's why I live there. ;-)
  • The Tower District Neighborhood is a blast from the past. Many homes, apartments, stores, and other buildings were built between 1920-30. Art Deco is the predominant theme here. The City of Fresno has provided for antique street lights and road signs. It really is cool.
  • Tower district Ah yes.... The Olympic Tavern, The Old Town Tavern, The Wild Blue Yonder, Cafe Midi, The Daily planet. All Gone....Gone.
