City art

Surprises around every corner.  Shaggy blue.

Creative way to ‘pretty up’ an otherwise pretty ugly sight.

Tile work is every where, but usually just as an accent.  This is an unusual over-all design.

Mid-century art work at the entrance of the café where we had our Little Frenchie.

Sad story here. This sculpture commemorates a 1947 tragedy when 3 returning fishing boats were caught in a change of weather. Within sight of the shore, families watched as 152 perished, resulting in 72 widows and 152 orphans.  There were men and women on the boats.  The story was relayed to us by our waitress in a café just up the street.  Her Grandfather was one of the fatalities.  – Laura
