While riding around town for god knows what, I found an unexpected statue and flower bed, squished in between some car parks and the massive construction site at Höfðaborg. Quite unexpected, and a rather outrageous slash of colour in the beige and grey world of Borgartún, Skúlagata and Skúlatún.

In the same area there's been a big building under construction for quite a while, from as far back as when Industria used to work on Borgartún, back in 2005. It has extremely gaudy glass windows, that everyone thought were some sort of temporary coating, but appear to be here to stay. You can probably some other pics of this in my other galleries somewhere.
