'Wings of Thought'. One of many WPA-era murals just inside The Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Company Building in #Denver #Colorado. 931 Fourteenth Street. 📸:me/10/20/2025. If you can zoom in on this, you're in for a treat, just like when you zoom in on a Hugo Ballin mural. #ArtDeco

A couple shots from the foyer of General Hospital in #LosAngeles. Most of this ginormous building is going to be turned in to housing but I'm pretty sure they're going to leave this part alone. Mural detail from THE Los Angeles muralist: Hugo Ballin. 📸:me/2025/09 #ArtDeco

Finally the first & maybe the last tours of the closed since 2012 #artdeco General Hospital Building. At the beginning of the year they are adaptively re-using the building for 100's of apartments, many for low income residents. Here's a teaser, featuring one of my fave LA artists: Hugo Ballin 📸:me

When this was built in 1929, it must have looked like an alien spaceship or something to the average person. #BullocksWilshire 📸:me/2023 #artdeco

If you’re dootin’ around & see some #ArtDeco : don’t assume I have seen it / know about it. Snap a photo & sent it to me & tell me where you spotted it !
Thanks to mutual @darqleo on IG for spotting this at 2817 N Main St in #LosAngeles. Will whip out fancy camera & get some of my own photos, later.
