Pretty in the City

Over the last 18 months or so, my neighborhood in southern Jerusalem has been undergoing subtle beautification treatments.

First, the city hired four artists to transform the green paper-recycling bins around the city . . .

bins 1
bins 3
And this bench, too.

Then I noticed, a few months ago, that they were remodeling the landscaping inside a couple of roundabouts (traffic circles / rotaries) near my home.

And now the electricity boxes are getting similar treatment.
