Well, here were are in São José, on the continent, a separate municipality but now one which bleeds into Florianópolis.
It has the usual dreadful Brazilian mixture of dilapidated and occasionally charming, hand made, improvised structures; mainly from wood and clay tiles. There is much miserable modern- which looks as it it were made of painted cardboard in half an afternoon- and a few good Portuguese inspired structures, almost Moorish in feel. There are concrete blocks disproportionately large for their contexts, there are no gardens. Everything is a little dirty.
The bridge above, broke in a flood a few years ago- now a pier good for fishing.
