If it is red, white, and green, then this must be the Lake

The Lake, also known as the village of Nonantum is the center of Italian heritage in Newton, MA. Just take a look at the streets.

Street lane dividers in The Lake (Nonantum) in Newton MA

And the fire hydrants.

And the street signs.

And the street light poles.

And the flags.

And even the pole protectors.

And especially the sister city.

How unusual! While ethnic groups in many arts of the country win some concessions from the city, (street signs in Vietnamese in Houston) to paint everything in the flag colors of the home country is unusual. Wonder if San Donato is red, white and BLUE?
