Waldrip Bridge, Again

The Waldrip Bridge in Waldrip, Texas, is a rare find. It's one of the few pin-connected through truss bridges that remain today, and it has a wooden deck.

Today only about 10% of bridges in the US have wooden decks, and only about 10% of bridges with wooden decks are through truss bridges.

Have you ever driven across a bridge with a wooden deck?

Hico Upstairs Inn On Pecan Street

The Coca-Cola sign in Hico, Texas, is painted on the side of the Hico Upstairs Inn On Pecan Street. The sign's background color is red, but it looks white because the camera had a red lens filter installed, enhancing the contrast of the black and white film.

Have you ever used black and white film to take photographs?

Queen and Fools Gold

Created by two different female artists as part of Crush Walls, these two murals once adorned the side of the Ramble Hotel in Denver, Colorado. On the left side is Lindee Zimmer's 'Queen,' and on the right is Nomad Clan's 'Fools Gold.'

On September 16, 2020, a new mural by El Mac replaced both works.

Do you like murals? If so, where have you seen some of your favorite ones?

Shelby's Bar

First opened as a funeral parlor in 1906, this building spent most of its life as The Pink Lady Bar in Denver, Colorado. The Pink Lady, a notorious clip joint, was converted into Shelby's, which intended to be an English pub in 1979.

As the legend goes, everyone mistook Shelby's for an Irish bar, and by 2016 Esquire Magazine featured the bar as one of America's 18 Best Bars. But unfortunately, when the last owners bought the bar, they didn't buy the land, and developers had put some big plans in motion in 2019.

The building was torn down and replaced with Denver's largest condo project since 2009, tentatively named Block 176. Going up would be two point-towers built on top of a nine-story base. The taller south tower would be 38 stories, while the north tower would be 32.

The Grill and Bar signs on the building had dated back to The Pink Lady days, and bartenders called 'last call' for the final time at Shelby's on June 23, 2019.

Did you ever go to The Pink Lady Bar or Shelby's Bar?

Ogden Theatre

In Denver, Colorado, The Ogden Theatre opened in 1917 as a movie theater affiliated with Fox Theatres. The building received a remodel in 1970 that updated the marquee, lobby, and auditorium.

To save the theatre from demolition, Doug Kauffman from Nobody In Particular Presents purchased the theatre and converted it into a live music venue in 1993.

What are some of the most memorable concerts you've seen at the Ogden Theatre?

Paramount Theatre In Denver

The Paramount Theatre in Denver, Colorado, was built by architect Temple Buell in 1930. Buell, credited for establishing the Western Style of architecture, designed over 300 buildings in Colorado, and the Paramount is considered his finest work.

The Theatre features art deco inside and out and houses a one-of-a-kind Wurlitzer twin-console organ, one of two remaining twin-console organs in the United States. The other remaining twin-console organ is at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.

Have you been to the Paramount Theatre? If so, what did you go to see?
