A House with a View



Monaco has so many beautiful houses - not just the blocks of apartments we see in the postcards. This house, on Boulevard du Jardin Exotique, has wonderful views - from the left, it looks down on the Church of Saint Devote - and ahead and to the right is the Port Hercule. You can see a little more detail in the smaller photograph.

A friend told me that Radio Monte Carlo used to occupy this building. I really don't know who owns it now. It would seem building work is going on. Someone reading this may know?

What a perfect little jewel box of a house! My new imaginary setting for "getting away from it all" fantasies.

A great entry for the Sky Watch Friday slot. I bet the building is worth millions, especially with that view.
