Fremont East District's Sacrificial Gardens

One by one, the motels, casinos and downtown buildings fall. The transition, not as fleet for some, whispers ominous in each and every old, old tree. When the buildings come down, so does the accompanying architectural landscape.

Some of the gardens, complex in light, shadow and colored desert stone in now dry creek beds, are soon sacrificial lambs at the alter of Progress.
