Art in Speedway: Minimalism

 A week or so ago, I took an early morning walk 

around Speedway. I had had a specific 

mission in mind, but on the way to that site, 

I took plenty of pictures of other things,

particularly garages.

When the Town of Speedway was established

in 1926, it was envisioned as a "city of

the future." Housing developments were created

that included garages for cars - but no

sidewalks, a problem that has, for the most part,

been remedied in recent years. 

It is these little structures I'm stalking.

Many of the garages remain, some brittle and gray,

others covered in vinyl, others lovingly tended

in homage to their automotive history.
