Thank you! Yes, they bring some confort, some calm, specially in a city like São Paulo where this raw urban feel is overwhelming sometimes. I love them.

And it's funny because in the past, when I showed people my vacation pictures of cities, I'm the kind of person who takes photos of manhole covers or sewer grates because I find them interesting, especially if they're not like the kind I'm used to in my city, and then my friends/family will say "Why did you take a picture of THIS??"
Have fun taking your photos! Again, I can't wait to see more. I've been wanting to visit Brazil but have never gotten around to doing it. I'm sure I would find São Paulo to be very interesting!

Your thread makes me feel I'm in LA and probably those were the places I'd like to know. Obviously as tourist you won't make the sense of everything, but I try to experience cities from the point of view of people living there.
About São Paulo, I'm pretty sure you will love it. It's perfect for people like you that like big cities while paying attention on the details. If you come to visit, let me know!
