Stroll through the historic indoor walkway of Nickels Arcade. The glass atrium-style ceiling lets in the fading afternoon light, giving you a chance to browse the shops and galleries before the sun dips.

Walk to The Cube. This 15-foot-tall glossy black sculpture by Tony Rosenthal is best seen in the context of the sky. Push it gently if it is still; it spins on its axis. The setting sun toward the WSW will reflect off its polished surface.

Head to New York Pizza Depot for dinner. Considered by some to be the best pizza in town, they offer stuffed and Chicago-style options. It is a lively spot, so arrive right after sunset to avoid the late-night crowd that gathers later on weekends.
18:12
End the night at Grizzly Peak Brewing Company. Enjoy their own brews and excellent food in a friendly setting. It is the perfect place to linger after your meal as the evening settles in.
