Location: Intermodal Transportation Center, Fort Worth, Texas

Description: This is the fifth of 5 panels chronicling the final era of vigorous growth in the area. There are references to the hopping nightlife of musical performers and dance. There were a wide variety of businesses and professional African Americans that thrived including print shops, beauty shops, cab companies, churches, even a professional baseball team. At the unveiling of the work there were many folks who recognized family members and favorite haunts of their youth---or their Grandparents.
