I always like to find a fire hydrant when visiting a city. My all time favourites are the ones in Zagreb, the only blue ones I've seen. (I can't believe I just admitted publically to having a favourite type of fire hydrant.)
While winding down the last day of our honeymoon in Key West, we decided to go on a scavenger hunt to find as many of the painted hydrants as we could. There really was no rhyme or reason as to why, but they struck us as unique enough to put together a collage and hang a 16x20 of it when we got home.
Many were taken from the back of our 2 seater motorized scooter.
FDNY will open up a fire hydrant like a sprinkler for block parties. This was on 7th St. in Park Slope this summer, just outside the BP.

Something red. I wanted to get a different angle of the fire hydrant and I took several ones and I really liked this one. I was trying to get it all in focus but it was hard but I liked how it turned out.
A bit out of my neighborhood, and had to snap these in a hurry, as usual, my husband is always rushing me! Anyway, this taller and skinnier than the typical ones I've seen.
i was taking the picture of the Parchment city sign when i looked down, i saw Traverse City printed on this pink fire hydrant --- LOL :-))
You always hear about the "Hamptons"? West Hampton, Bridge Hampton and Southampton? Well, they have hydrants there too. See how nice and clean and shiny it looks...the street too? I did notice a few weeds...
