    this might be a naive question, but …
    did you ‘shop’ this picture, or were the lights actually as presented here?

    regardless, it’s a very nice pic

  2. @al-Ameda: This underpass (and some others along the same highway in downtown Birmingham) have the colored lights (which cycle through variaous permutations).

    Here’s the whole thing:

  4. CSK says:

    Is there a reason other than decorative (I assume) for the lights?

  5. @CSK: I think it is just public art.

  6. @t: We had been to Good People right before the photos, in fact. No food trucks, but it was the day before Thanksgiving, so things were a bit on the slow side.

    Love that tap room!
