This is a shot from a while back before the iconic Boot and Saddle sign on South Broad Street was restored. It was a wondrous relic in its decay, but now it looks as it did when it was first installed. Sadly the club beneath this sign could not withstand the lack of business due to the lockdowns and has long since shut their doors.

That is a shame, but that IS the new reality…
Hopefully, there will be a revival – for this business and a lot of the others who have had to shut their doors.
