More than tax dollars
Friday, 29 November 2019
We had a miscellaneous errand over toward downtown, so we strolled around that area. This is the view of downtown from Jackson Street bridge. You many have seen it in a movie or in advertising art.
Turns out the libraries are closed for the holiday, so we used the book drop. Our regular branch is closed for renovations, so we used a different branch, over by the MLK center. [TMI, pretty sure.]
One of my favorite public art pieces of all time. MLK stating that he has a dream, I’m guessing.
People live around here now, in some rather expensive new apartments and not in the crack-infested public housing that was here.
Nice reflection in window of business undergoing renovation…sign is for an axe-throwing business. Have fun, it states in multiple ways.
Pansy (etc.) triangle by the MLK center. Your federal dollars at work. National Park Service property.
We discovered that we didn’t know that the Grady HIGH SCHOOL football team has a practice field. More tax dollars at work.
