Michael, first of all your gourmet blog is a treat. I've already read through some of your entries (places I've eaten at too) and compliment you on your photos and words). I'm looking forward to reading more.
Well, you could be right although I'd think the wood and the lettering maybe date further back. I imagined this to be the place where men would stand waiting to garage the cars, even carriages. Rather like the one outside the Hotel de Paris in Monaco.
The old Concierge's office looks unchanged since the building was opened in 1903.
Wow- effect and very nice!
ReplyDeleteI would think that the concierge office was put in when the building was converted to apartments, not when it was built as a hotel.

Anyway I don't know - you could well be right.
I have seen many a concierge desk, but never a concierge office.
ReplyDeleteLovely door. Seems to have quite an impressive character!
