A limited-edition artist book by Laura Russell
Denver’s infamous Avenue.
Once a Great American Road lined
with landmarks and roadside attractions.
Now prostitutes motels mixed drinks.
Look beyond the urban grit and see
brilliant colors that light up the night
a visual story that captivates by day.
Feel the sizzle of electricity
the sparkle of a million lights.
Neon enlivens Denver’s streets
invoking memories of bygone days.
Its colorful history will live forever
in our hearts and in our minds.
