Windows & Balconies of Paris on Rue de Saint-Pétersbourg / Boulevard des Batignolles.

Corner façade at Rue de Saint-Pétersbourg and Boulevard des Batignolles, Paris.

Look up at this corner where Rue de Saint-Pétersbourg meets Boulevard des Batignolles. Carved stone curves around the junction, balconies stack like lacework, and a small rooftop clock quietly watches the city below probably ignored in the rush of daily life.

This building is one of those Paris façades that rewards a second look the scrolls, the masks, the soft light on pale stone. A piece of architecture made to be admired from the pavement.

“Paris reveals itself one balcony at a time.”
