Description

This photo was taken at the intersection of Wallace Ct and Winthrop Street (the Audi is parked on Winthrop Street), which is very close to the Bunker Hill Monument, and in one of the wealthiest areas of Charlestown. I thought that the mid-sized Audi, the charming lamppost, and high-end townhouse in the background all reflected the wealth of the area very well. This was also representative of several blocks surrounding this intersection in that the homes and cars all looked fairly similar to these.

Juxtaposed with these symbols of wealth are other symbols that exclude outsiders. The Private Parking sign is prominently displayed, and the black fence is pristine and newly painted. These both seemed to indicate to visitors that they were unwelcome unless they had expressly been invited by a neighborhood resident.
