Symbolism?

Fulton Street in Palo Alto does things fancy for the holidays: much like Willow Glen in San Jose, every house is decorated, many of them extravagantly. Each house has its own small Christmas tree at curbside bedecked with familiar oval shaped Christmas tree lights. Even the streetlights -- built to look like early twentieth century streetlamps -- are decorated.  It is an impressive and cheering holiday sight.

That said, it is perhaps unfortunate that they choose to color the streetlights red.
