Streetpalms of the U.S. Mid-Atlantic are more likeable than streepalms of the U.S. Sunbelt, on account of their being less common in the Mid-Atlantic.

-----------------------

In Virginia Beach, Virginia, on October 10th, 2023, was a palm at the driveway of the Seahawk Motel at the southeast corner of Atlantic Avenue and 26th Street.

Do you like purple objects? When a researcher says to you "Next, I want you to think of a business sign," is this the kind of object that comes to mind?

That little tree next to the sign is in a weird location imo, but I like it and I hope it never gets chopped down.

Ugh but across the parking lot and beyond the lineup of arborvitaes, one of the buildings is a former Eagles lodge, ugh. Yea it is the red one in the center.

Get away from me with your nostalgia for the Fraternal Order of Eagles, which was officially, openly white supremacist into the 1970s, and more quietly after that.

The former Eagles Lodge in the center (318 Washington Street, built 1914, later an Independent Order of Vikings Lodge) is a "contributing property" in the Jamestown Downtown Historic District, 14000935 on the National Register of Historic Places.

But the aggressive curviness of the turfgrass's right-hand boundary with the gravel arouses such delight that the bland uncertainty of its left-hand boundary with the mulch is a bad letdown in comparison.
