I don't know exactly when this building was built, but these ladies have probably been holding that balcony up for a couple of centuries. First rule of strolling around Paris with a camera: Remember to look up! [To see more of The Weekend in Black and White, visit Dragonstar's meme.] |
I wish it were easy to move to Paris. If it were, I'd go in a second.

DeleteThat section of la rue d’Assas (where is No. 20) has been open since 1798. A couple of centuries is a good guess. The Catholic University of Paris across the street offers French language courses for independent adults. It looks like apartments in the building above go for aroundish €12,000 m2. But look at the attentive concierge service you could have right outside your window.
