There’s no doubt what this building used to be! From my trip to Phoenix, Arizona, back in April.

This is among a handful of activism-inspired wall art in the Warehouse District, south of the office towers in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. Spotted this on my visit to the city last month.

Double-decker transit buses are something I expect plying the streets of London, not decaying in a parking lot in a run-down corner of downtown Phoenix, Arizona. Made this sad, sad find a few weeks ago.

Staring up at some office towers and a clear, blue sky in Phoenix, Arizona, a couple of weeks ago.
