Thanks a lot everyone!

blorkishdork, it was my annual pilgrimage to Montgomery County.

Segun, that's Germantown Avenue. The colorful buildings were done by our Mural Arts Program along with two Dutch muralists who painted the buildings in the same style they did favelas in Rio de Janiero.

mousquet, thanks for the thoughts. Symbolism gets lost on Americans sometimes - every iconic image has been commercialized to the point of losing all meaning. The US Flag, the Statue of Liberty and the Liberty Bell probably chief among them.
