HOUSTON, TX

Justice and History Mural and architectural detail taken from the North end of Main Street, late in the afternoon. Surely a more dedicated art historian could come up with details on the artist and architect. I only had 10 minutes to get back to the restaurant in time for our reservation. Maybe I’ll get back, but you know, way leads on to way.
