Once upon a time there was an artist named Perpetual Chocoholic who lived in a city. Once a week she and her friend Hot Chocolate liked to walk through his neighbourhood snapping pictures and finding inspiration for future works of art. 

This week in Hot Chocolates neighbourhood there was something new!  The city decided to beautify Hot Chocolates neighbourhood (which is trendy and yuppy and pays really high taxes)  so they commissioned an artist(s?) to make these:
