Grunge TARDIS. I came to see the mural but didn't have a wide enough lens to get it all. Once I saw the doorway, I couldn't get Bizarro Doctor Who out of my head.

A photograph of a building exterior featuring a heavily weathered and barred window with a rusted exhaust fan behind metal bars. Above the window, an old ventilation pipe curves outward and up, attached to a beige wall made of painted bricks. The right side of the wall is covered in a vibrant mural: a stylized landscape with triangular trees, flowing lines, floating clouds, and large red and white circular shapes resembling suns or moons. The mural's palette includes sky blue, navy, coral red, and white, contrasting sharply with the dull, industrial elements of the window and pipe. The image captures the tension between decay and creativity in an urban setting.

Close-up of a rust-colored metal bear sculpture, with overlapping leaf-like pieces forming the fur and texture of the bear's face and head. The sculpture has a reddish-brown patina with visible weathering, and the expression is stoic with small round eyes and a pronounced snout.

Full-body shot of the same bear sculpture made from curved metal strips, standing on top of a similarly styled metal sphere. The sculpture is placed on a concrete base in a grassy public area, with a tree and urban street in the background. A placard at the base provides information about the art piece.

A tall, narrow sculpture resembling a blue steel column with a jagged, organic-shaped cavity running vertically through it. The exposed interior reveals a concrete-like texture. The sculpture is mounted on a concrete base in a downtown area, with a mural of a woman’s face and urban buildings visible in the background.

Close-up view of the textured cavity within the blue steel sculpture. The camera focuses on the rough, granular concrete interior and the surrounding worn blue paint, with a blurred urban environment and parked cars in the background.

A new grocery store, Warehouse Urban Grocer, is being built in Downtown Colorado Springs.

Downtown isn't exactly a food desert, but there are still a limited amount of options if you don't have a way to get around.
