The late-evening light slants across red-brick storefronts and wooden boardwalks as the Stockyards' streets hum with the echo of cattle drives and old barroom piano. On this self-guided audio walk, the district's asphalt and adobe seem to hold their breath — doors remember, alleyways murmur — and the app places a practiced narrator in your ear to point out where history becomes rumor.
