• In St. Petersburg, many street-level windows on businesses and apartments have decorative metal security grilles. This one is a sunburst pattern that extends over two sections, covering the window opening. The sunburst begins with an arc in the lower right of the right section. Metal rods representing the sun's rays begin at the arc at evenly spaced intervals and reach across the second section to the metal borders of the grille. A second arc at about two thirds of the way across the grille adds strength.
