Larger offers more detail. This is a busy image, but it is cohesive to

me as it depicts both street life, architecture, and technology in the

Santo Domingo barrio in Medellín. This neighborhood was the

worst and most dangerous during the Pablo Escobar drug cartel that

ended with his assassination in 1992. Since, successful strides

have been made that offer residents access to events, employment,

transportation, and more. The cable car in the image is the

metrocable system that hooks into the Metro that provides the most

modern and affordable rail mass transit. Enough details about the

place. Although much housing is still run down, the bright colors

signify the happiness of the people. Thanks for reading all this and

looking at the image. Larry

Please also look at the following image, which is an inset (crop) from this one.  I didn't even see the people on the stairs in the first image until I re-examined it closely before posting on PN.  Thanks.  Larry
