The View Out my Window - Thursday, 19 January
There's a major construction project happening across the street - I'm not sure what this complex of buildings was before, nor what it's becoming, but I love the way the buildings are preserved here despite renovations and repurposing. Let's hear it for character! Let's hear it for charm! Let's hear it for ancient relics! (And I don't mean just old codgers like me.)
Since I can't string these photos left-to-right for you, I'll paste them vertically. I'm sure you can see how they fit together. (By the way, you can click on any of the photos in this blog and it will enlarge for you.)
You'll notice the handy dandy huge food market, La Grand Epicerie de Paris, almost directly across the street from me and Le Bon Marche department store right next to it. Temptation, temptation. (Not to mention the fact that the annual big January sales are "on" all over town!)
