Census tracts (4) match perfectly with the official definition of Downtown Phoenix. Growth there picked up later, in the 2010's only, in a moment the region slowed down considerably. I don't know how things are on the ground there, population is still low, but it looks promising regardless.

Things continue to look really promising in downtown Phoenix, there are currently over 4,000 additional residential units under construction, 400 hotel rooms under construction, and now over 200 bars/restaurants. The local Skyscraper page is impatiently awaiting the ground breaking for the new tallest, Astra which we we're given a date of 6/30/22 by the developer last week.
On the population count, Downtown Inc shows about 20K in DT PHX, if I had to guess the difference may be the approximately 12K ASU students who now attend classes and live downtown, they probably don't show up in the Census but I'm not 100% sure. I can tell you it feels like a lot more than 13K when you're out and about in the city.
I noticed the photo posted is uptown, not downtown which doesn't show any of the new growth.
