Tempe Town Lake’s west bladder #2 collapsed at about 9:44 p.m. local time on July 20, 2010. The lake immediately began draining, with the rupture causing a maximum recorded flow at priest drive of 11643 cubic feet per second (329.69 cubic meters / second).[1] The lake lost the vast majority of its water by the following morning.

This picture shows the deflated dam. The picture was taken the following morning, at about noon.

Question by Magrat: What is the best hotel to stay at close to the Marquee Theater in Tempe, Arizona?
If possible, I’d like to be in walking distance of the Marquee. Failing that, it would be nice to be close to some cool shopping, restaurants, or bars.

Best answer:

Answer by robert_w_peters
There’s nothing within walking distance — but there are several nearby (within 1 mile). Here are the closest/easiest:

Country Inn & Suites

Best Western

http://www.resideo.com/us/arizona/tempe/43373270.hotel

Both are near plenty of restaurants, etc.

Good luck, hope that helps!

Answer by kbk823
When I lived in apartments- summer bills were up to $ 300 a month, but like $ 60-80 in the winter. Of course, I was keeping the air at like 68 in the summer, so it was totally my fault.
