Despite the devastating cyclone of 1928 and then Hugo in 1989, the city of Pointe-à-Pitre, the economic hub of Guadeloupe but not its capital, still retains a few colonial houses with typical wooden balconies amidst concrete buildings. The neighborhood association "Pli Bel La Ri" ("Plus belle la rue") repaints the facades of abandoned houses, and creates shared gardens and frescoes, bringing a new dynamic to these neighborhoods. These actions are carried out by local residents, who improve their living environment in the process. It's a great initiative, and one that's gathering momentum as the owners of the surrounding houses get in on the act by renovating their properties in turn.
