Pictures from various trips to and through Arizona, except:
Bisbee -- I've been there a number of times, so that's a separate album.

Miami AZ Bullion Plaza School (1962)
Miami AZ Bullion Plaza School (1961)

Bullion Plaza school, which opened in 1923 and is now the Bullion Plaza Cultural Center and Museum. Per a webpage of the museum, the school operated for many years as the "Mexican" school due to the very specific separation that once existed in Arizona, the school was desegregated in 1950. It stopped being a school in 1994 due to the condition of the classrooms.
Miami AZ Inspiration school (1916)

The closed Inspiration School. Considering the symbols it might be assumed that this was a religious school, but it is important to note that a major mine in the Miami area was named Inspiration mine.

Remains of the sign on the former Travelers Hotel in downtown Miami, AZ. The sign appears to have been painted over at some point, and the neon seems to have been advertising something else. On the back of the building the neon seems to say "Real Buffet"

Globe, AZ school (1923)

The Hill Street School in Globe. It's a striking piece of architecture but I found conflicting information on websites and thus can't be sure as to when it was built. From one side it looks completely abandoned, on another side you can see that new windows have been installed at the top.
