new coat of paint

One of the public housing buildings (now probably owned by the former renters) in my part of town recently got a new coat of bright yellow paint that made for interesting contrasts.
I was told these public housing buildings were originally build to house Italian refugees from Istria and Dalmatia who were escaping the purges in Yugoslavia after the end of WWII. They brought their cultural habits with them and to this day every summer they get together at the nearby park for traditional dancing. This summer, couple dancing had to be eschewed of course and the program was substituted with open air folk theatre.

HFF everyone!
