The next big retail trend has arrived in Old Town, thanks to the opening of The Merchantile of Scottsdale. The 5,400-square-foot shopping destination brings designers, makers, artists and local businesses under one roof in a space designed with creativity in mind. Here, visitors can shop a wide array of clothing, accessories, home decor and gifts from local vendors; attend shopping, creative and social events hosted by local artists and craftspeople; and work on their own DIY projects in The Merchantile’s designated “creative space” while sipping on artisan coffee from an on-site vendor. 3965 N.
