The Street's Serenity at Six
The uniform vocabulary of the street with all the elements bring about a particular character, which creates a nostalgia. These elements make the street one of its kind. The calmness is a product of all the features that blend perfectly with the character. Morning scene is a perfect Gate - away from the daily hub dub of the city. One can experience this place with its uniqueness, as if quite words of poetry are being whispered in the ears.
The serenity which is evident from the pictures is transformed into a spurring symphony with people of different ages, professions, backgrounds crowding the " Mall under the Tree Canopy" by evening. The quietness in the morning is perfectly juxtaposed with the liveliness of the street in the later hours of the day.

Trees are like our grand parents.
They are always standing for us in every situation. They always have something for everyone,
In return we can at least give them the little space they deserve.
We gave the trees their own space and look what we got.
The trees have transformed the street ambiance, and people seem to be enjoying it.
