La plus petite maison

This is the smallest house in Brussels, as spotted as I passed through town last September.
Well, at least, that’s what the sign says.

Magic number

A follow-up to yesterday’s photo: This is at 66 St. Subway station in New York. Lots of beautiful ceramic art adorn the station walls — not just at that station but throughout all the underground parts of the network.

Artistic resistance

The underside of the LRT bridge over the Bow River in Calgary is a revolving canvas for graffiti and public art — drawn, cleaned off and replace by new art. Here’s an entry from this spring.

Amoureux

The “I Heart Cheese” meme pops up all over the place in Montreal street art. The image above was captured this April, while the one below was taken in March 2009.

I love cheese!
