Paint and bricks and Paint

Hola Amigos!

Back from my hols and came away with lots and lots of ideas for how the physical environment can be improved in our hood.... but FIRST - the update on the news on how will the painting be done for the 'brick' at Chay Yan Street blocks....

TC has informed me that the reason they cannot recover the brick surface now is that the bricks, have not just been painted over years ago, but that there is actually a layer of thin plaster that was applied over them years ago too... so, there is no way of restoring them for now...

And taking on board feedback from residents who have voiced it, that the available paints make the painting to simulate 'brick' look FAKE, they will take the option of painting everything white.

So, that is that for now....

Let me sort out the images and post them up for your comments....
