Graffito Books See page 7 LOST “The pictures alone are worth the price of admission.” —Publishers Weekly on Lost New York “Beautifully illustrated in aged black-and-white photos and burnished with charming prose based on many years of research.” —Library Journal on Lost New York “Meticulously researched. Images of buildings that no longer exist illuminate a side of Baltimore no contempo- rary visitor to the city could see, as does the lore recounted by the authors.” —Publishers Weekly on Lost Baltimore This historical series celebrates the cherished places in a city that time, progress, and fashion have swept aside. In loving detail, it looks back at many of the things that have helped create a city’s unique identity and have since disappeared—the streetcars, the shops, the parks, the churches, the amusement parks, even the annual parades. In one city-centric collection, it brings together the architectural gems that failed to be preserved, the hotels that could not be adapted and fell to the wrecking ball, and the novelty buildings.

It was a hardscrabble life for the early settlers, but first King Cotton brought wealth to the local economy and then the Lucas Gusher at the Spindletop oilfield made Houston the capital of the American oil and gas business. The old Texas State Cap- itol was demolished and replaced by the old Rice Hotel, which was then replaced by the 1913 Rice Hotel that stands today. Baseball has been played at Buffalo Stadium, Colt Stadium, and the “EighthWonder” the Astrodome before settling at MinuteMaid Park. The Astros’ ballpark occupies the space once occupied by Union Station’s platforms and the Houston-to-Dallas Texas Rocket train, both lost to time and progress. Sites include: Camp Logan, Carnegie Colored Library, Houston Chronicle Building, Original Texas State Capitol, Old City Hall, Moorish Federal Building, Felix Mexican Restaurant, Grand Central Station, Trailblazer Monorail, Houston Light Guard Armoury, Metropolitan Theatre, Mag- nolia Brewery, Streetcars on Heights Boulevard, Shamrock Hotel, NFL and NBL at the Astrodome, Houston Municipal Air Terminal, and the Sam Houston Coliseum. William Dylan Powell lives in Texas and is a member of the Writers’ League of Texas and the Texas State Historical As- sociation. He is the author of Austin Then and Now, Houston Then and Now, and Texas Then and Now 9781910496756 • November Lost Denver Amy Zimmer Astonishing images of vanished Denver, from old hotels and movie houses to streetcars to sports stadiums There has been much change in Denver since the first settlers built a small town on the south side of Cherry Creek and named it Auraria. Streetcar suburbs emerged and were annexed into the city of Denver; skyscrapers rose and were replaced by even bigger skyscrapers. The streetcars disappeared. Denver’s baseball team, the Bears, played out of Broadway Park, then Bears Stadium, which became Mile High Stadium and then a parking lot for Sports Authority Field. The city has lost many of its grand Victorian buildings. The grand Richardsonian Romanesque Denver Club is gone, along with the Tabor Block and Tabor Opera House. The theater district on Curtis Street has been transformed, while the Denver Urban Renewal Authority (DURA) has targeted whole districts for wholesale change. Lost Denver looks at the many aspects of the city that have disappeared—the old hotels and movie
