From Wallflower dispatches.
Note: no overhead power lines. Yay. (And this photo is from 1927...!) Also: no trees or plants on boulevard ...hm. Not so yay?
*But* - people put flower pots and plant baskets on their window sills. (Not visible in this picture, because it's obviously not spring or summer; the subject is wearing winter clothes.)
Greenery in the city: did the individual "green" her city first?
I was born in Duesseldorf's Altstadt (Old Town), at home in an apartment house that looks like any one of the ones pictured here. There is a park across the street from 1 Bergerallee, and the Rhine flows nearby, flanked by a promenade/ park. But Bergerallee also has no trees or greenery, except for what residents provide in pots. It's nonetheless more than tolerable.
Note the wide, wide boulevards, perfect for summertime street furniture, cafes, children playing. How did Sander catch the city so deserted-looking, I wonder...?
