Waynedale's "Main Drag" is Lower Huntington Road, and the oldest part of the small town that is now part of the city of Fort Wayne, Indiana. I photographed this section of Lower Huntington Road at night because I liked how it looked under the harsh yellowish glow of the city street lights.
The brick building is the A.S. Elzey Building, built in 1925 just west of Old Trail Road. Waynedale Bakery and the Hook & Ladder Tavern have both been here for decades.
I made this photograph around 1am, so it was made in the very early morning of July 22, 2014.
Waynedale was founded by Abner Elzey in the 1920s, and in 1957 the residents voted to join the city of Fort Wayne. Though Waynedale has been part of Indiana's second largest city for more than 50 years (longer than it was an independent town), it still looks and feels like a small town.

All of my prints are available framed or unframed. I use black metal Neilsen & Bainbridge frames with white cotton unbuffered museum board for the mat and backing board for maximum archival protection. Photographs are printed on an Epson pigment printer using Epson's archival ultrachrome inset for long life.
