The Remains Of The Lucy Park Japanese Pagoda Remain No More
The rain has let up on this third Friday of May.
Since I was in the neighborhood, getting meds from a nearby pharmacy, I opted to continue on to Lucy Park for a bout of nature communing.
A year or two or three ago, time flies, who can keep track, I was surprised to see that the Lucy Park Japanese Pagoda had gone up in flames, leaving only the metal framework upon which it had been built.
That remaining metal framework began to look like an intended work of sculptural art. Some suggested painting the metal before it succumbed to rust.
But, such is no longer an option.
The metal framework remains of the Lucy Park Japanese Pagoda have been removed, as you can see via the photo documentation above.
I never saw mention made of the Lucy Park Pagoda flameout in what passes for a newspaper in this town, the Wichita Falls Times Record News.
So, I do not expect to see an article about the removal of the Pagoda's remains. Or if a new Pagoda is planned to arise from the ashes.
I have never been able to learn why a Japanese Pagoda was erected in Lucy Park. There must be a reason for it...
