Sullivan Street is the main commercial spine of old Miami, lined with early 20th-century brick storefronts that went up during the copper boom years before the First World War. The street has seen better days, but a handful of the buildings have been revived as antique shops, small galleries, and studios, giving the downtown a quiet, unhurried character that suits a browse on a weekday afternoon.
Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament Church at 844 Sullivan Street is one of the architectural anchors — a Catholic church built to serve the many Mexican and European immigrant families who came to work in the mines. The mix of Spanish Colonial Revival and vernacular Western commercial architecture along the street is worth a slow walk, and several buildings carry dates that put them firmly in the first decade of the town's existence.
Miami and Globe are close enough (about five miles apart on US-60) that most visitors use Sullivan Street as a starting point before continuing into Globe's more substantial historic district.
