Sunday I took an early morning bike ride to Louisville’s South End where I used to live. I couldn’t believe how much it has changed since I resided there! Particularly my attention was caught in what used to be a lower moderate income residential area–and now is a HUGE parking lot for the University of Louisville which has take over a couple square miles of real estate. This is a view from a brand new overpass (named for Denny Crum, famed UofL basketball coach) on a brand new major thoroughfare through the area.
The view of the other side of the overpass is of a new L&N Stadium adorned with all the advertising of the big corporations that helped build it.
Coming off the overpass, I turned north and went along the main entrance of the stadium. U of L is a basketball school but they did all right by the football team, too!
