The colour on Hotel Le Germain is simple painted concrete, but I like the effect,. And since it is at the end of rue President-Kennedy, it can be seen from a distance. #Montreal #downtown #buildings

Same buildings from an oblique angle.
Looking down a street to the coloured one at the end.

My friends are not going to believe this, I even can hardly believe it. By chance I am out for the night in Tempe, sharing a hotel room with a friend who drove here from out of town. 3 caregivers covering for me and everyone said “Go!” 1st time away since February 8. Btw it did NOT rain. Yes it was 115° again. Maybe I’ll post a few more photos tonight. Happy happy! #Tempe #Arizona #Downtown

Fort Wayne, IN is really interesting and has been making some cool changes over the last few years in #downtown.

This is Columbia Street, which has been closed off to motor vehicles. This intersection has been raised to sidewalk level, forcing drivers to slow down.

Fort Wayne has also brought in rental bikes and scooters, as well as more bike lanes (although they aren't protected) and bike trails.

Jacksonville's namesake. The racist 7th President of The United States, Andrew Jackson. Several of our city schools have been renamed, and "discussions" about removing confederate statues continue, yet not for this one. Likely to keep its prominent location downtown.

So many pretty things at the Farmer’s Market. 🌻👨🏽‍🌾

#market #downtown #farming

A table piled high with large red, purple, and orange beets tied together in bunches, their big beet roots facing out from the table toward the sun. Off in the corner are some purplish-green rutabagas.
A display of beautiful and colorful cut flowers of many varieties: sunflowers, marigolds, and more in mostly yellows, oranges, pinks, reds, and greens.
Another table full of medium, potted succulents for sale. The succulents are a variety of shapes, sizes, textures, and shades of greens, browns, and even purples.

Embarcadero Street

San Francisco is such a lively and vibrant city. The waterfront of San Francisco Bay highlights this in so many ways. From Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39 all the way down to ATT Park.
This area here is in an area known as South of Market and it has seen fantastic renewal over the last 15-20 years.

Another reminder that urban density & lush street trees creating a “Kissing Canopy” over the sidewalk and street are completely compatible. It’s actually PART of #DensityDoneWell. You just have to make it a actual design priority. As this very dense block in my downtown #Vancouver neighbourhood illustrates.

Saturday morning stroll downtown. 🌞

#walking #downtown #Colorado

Colorful banners hanging from a light post seen through some trees. Brick walkways and shops in the background on a bright, sunny, blue sky morning.
Fancy art deco style fountain in front of the courthouse with the pedestrian mall in the background. In the far distance, the Flatirons rock formations peek above the buildings downtown. Bright, sunny, blue skies.
Looking down the street at the Farmer’s Market, with fresh produce and plants for sale on tables under white-topped tents with people strolling by. Bright, sunny, blue skies with some trees in the background.
