In April, I posted photos from the Art Rise’s inaugural Art March Parade in Thomas Square, so I decided to check out the fun last weekend at the Waters Avenue Art March Parade.
There was a nice turnout, but it was really hot, which clearly kept some folks away and prompted others to head home early rather than linger for the live entertainment and festival atmosphere. The parade began and ended in the city-owned plaza on Waters near 37th, headed a block east from there, turned north, and eventually headed south on Waters for a number of blocks.
Waters Avenue has some wonderful potential, but some of the vacant commercial properties are unlikely to attract investors until the city’s long-delayed zoning overhaul is in place.
Anyway, the evening was great fun, and I took a bunch of photos:
