BELOW ARE THE CLUES TO FIND ALL 5 HEARTS!

 

GOVERNMENT DISTRICT

Find the building that is home to a restaurant and vinyl record Shop

Look for a service where footwear is saved, except maybe your Flip Flop

In addition, this building is home to First Fridays

Take these steps to find the heart, then bask in high Praise.

 

OFFICE DISTRICT

This heart is across from the once lit Blue Flame, but in plain Sight

Just find the place serving drinks that will keep you up at Night

On a window, and in a place where you can study is where this heart Rests

Sipping that sweet caffeine so you can pass those never ending Tests

 

EL CENTRO DISTRICT

Start in the City’s oldest Street

Next to a pub with plenty to Eat

A bird promising riches is what you need to Think

Look for everlasting art applied with Ink

 

UNION PLAZA DISTRICT

Find the mascot of a bar, with a Girl

Not far from the once booming Black Pearl

Serving drinks that rhyme with “Risky” isn’t making them a Trend Setter

But they’re served by girls everyone says, “…do it Better.”

 

LAS PLAZAS ARTS DISTRICT

First find DTEP’s public pantheon of literary Pros

Then look across the way where the scent of food this way Blows

Tasting their delicious dishes will earn your Devotion

This heart sits in this place, deftly named after an Emotion

 

Winners will be announced on Tuesday, February 12, 2019 via social media and this webpage.
