DOWNTOWN: What with their volleyball courts and strangely quiet (and possibly empty) apartments, the Orsini I and II rental projects north of downtown are a source of endless fascination. And the fascination continues with the news that there now is an art mural of horses galloping back and forth between Orsini I and II. How this fits into the faux-Tuscan theme isn't clear, but who doesn't enjoy watching a little giddup while sitting in traffic. [Curbed Staff]
