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.
