Playground at the public housing in Yarra.

Flags at Yarra public housing, presumably to showcase the diversity of the residents.

Community garden near the public housing at Yarra.

I was surprised to see UCLA paraphernalia. I spoke to the shopkeeper; he told me he loves Americana.

Our next stop was another nearby suburb located in the City of Yarra. Here, we walked past what appeared to be a public housing project, and we explored the community gardens and library near there. We also explored some more shops. Compared to housing projects I’ve seen elsewhere (apart from Singapore, where public housing is the norm and in a class of its own), this housing project appeared to be bright, cheerful, and with a good amount of open space with pleasant playgrounds. There was a signboard with flags, presumably celebrating the diversity of the residents; I doubt you’d see that in England. I also liked seeing all the rainbow flags all over the area celebrating the impending passage of same-sex marriage legislation.
