- Lowell, Arizona was once a sizable mining town located just southeast of Bisbee - Today, it is a small neighborhood of the larger community - The majority of the original town-site was consumed by the excavation of the Lavender Pit mine during the 1950's - What remains of Lowell today is a strikingly intact, historical mid-20th-century street – often utilized as a backdrop for film and video shoots - Well worth a visit to walk back in time - It’s also the location of well-documented daylight UFO sightings at the traffic circle in mid 1990’s - The traffic circle in Lowell is actually "The Center of the Universe" ... according to legend, anyway ... but it is so marked and celebrated ... it's gotta be somewhere, so why not here?
