Home of disgraced former senator Gary Hart

517 6th St. SE is the former residence of Gary Hart, a Democratic US senator from Colorado from 1975 to 1987. Hart was the front-runner for the 1988 Democratic presidential nomination until he dropped out over allegations that he was having an extramarital affair with model Donna Rice. In April 1987 Gary Hart and Donna Rice were spotted at his residence by reporters from the Miami Herald. This home has changed hands twice since 1987 and is still used as a private residence.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Interesting to see with the scooter out front. V

Including the scooter makes the image even more interesting. I remember that affair, the toxic political clime here has gone overboard, in some of these matters that mean nothing to getting necessary work done.

High tech transport for those living in the house. V

Funny how had that happened in France or many other places, it would have been perceived as a personal matter and concerned only the people involved.

Well taken architectural image and some interesting "gossip" information. Like the vehicle on the sidewalk. ~V
