Husby, Stockholm, Sweden

The water stairs at the south end of Husby Centrum. Unlike the fountain in Rosengård, this fountain has been foamed a number of times, yet not filled with concrete.
This is a new development in Husby. A year ago the whole area looked like the part between the two white houses - sand and gravel.
This is a relatively new development, thus the industrial look with no greenery, no nothing. These houses used to be connected with a long corridor called "gula gången" ("the yellow corridor"), running about where I stood taking this photo. I don't know about later years, but way back in '86 or so the corridor was one of the "bad places" you just stayed away from. I'm not surprised tearing it down was one of the top items on the list of things to do in order to improve Husby.
