I was at a Beck concert a couple of years ago when said musician strutted on stage and stated that he really kind of liked our little city "It's pretty clean, with lots of monuments"...

i'm afraid that kind of sums us up, as a recent four-block round trip stroll to and from my dentist's office confirmed. Within four blocks I passed no less than seven major downtown monuments/works of public art (eight if you count those monuments I saw, but didn't directly walk past: vis-a-vis the Soldiers and Sailors Monument as it winked knowingly at me from between buildings) And I passed absolutely no more than 3 pieces of litter floating around on city streets; this number only being as large as it is because i counted both the main news and the business section of today's paper lying next to a park bench as separate pieces of litter, rather than the patchwork pieces of a blanket they were probably intended to be...
