The Gate to Heaven

All the lights were on
Down the block, all the lights were on at the construction site. I don’t know why they are always on all night, but I assume it’s to give photographers a nice thing to shoot at night. I can’t imagine that there would be another reason…

Going back to go forward
At some point, this building will become the new city hall – or Citizens Tower, which I suppose is a fancier way to say the same thing.
The City of Lubbock is posting “monthly” updates on the construction progress, which seems like an effort to be more “transparent” and to “not piss off everyone in town over the $46 million price tag.” Interestingly, though, the “monthly” updates haven’t been posted since December. Whatever that means…
But on the other hand, it’s nice that there’s a big renovation project going on downtown.

Gargoyles and an uneasy sky
Well, of course I have to post the obligatory photo of Notre Dame’s gargoyles. Nice that I got an assist from the sky, though.

Alternating Current
And here we are in Houston, at a very cool art space called The Silos at Sawyer Yards; it’s an area of old warehouses and silos and etc. that have been repurposed as arts spaces. As it happened, our visit coincided with the monthly Second Saturday event, when studios are open, so we were able to look at art and visit with the artists.
The Silos are part of a larger arts area in Houston – you can read about that right here.
And, if you do have a reason to go to Houston, think about adding this to your itinerary. And if you don’t have a reason to go to Houston, a visit to to Sawyer Yards and all the adjacent artsy stuff is reason enough to plan a visit.
