Arizona State University at the Downtown Phoenix campus (commonly referred to as ASU Downtown) is one of the four campuses of Arizona State University, located in the downtown area of Phoenix, Arizona.

The school was built in line with ASU President Michael Crow's "One University, Many Places" initiative, and was built with cooperation from Arizona state and local governments.
