Lots of stores, restaurants and shops. Many high end residential buildings. Well known neighborhood.

The community is full of trees, green in the day and shady at night. In the vicinity of the street lamp, the hazy light from the branches and leaves to the tree added rings of halo, from a distance, the tree crown as enveloped in a halo.
