Both the statues of André Le Nôtre and Jules Hardouin-Mansart (posted the day before yesterday) stand on a round place between Avenue of the United States and Avenue de Saint-Cloud, a curvy detail of which I am showing you today.----------------------------------------
Les statues d'André Le Nôtre et Jules Hardouin-Mansart (postée avant-hier) s'élèvent sur une place entre l'Avenue des Etats-Unis et l'avenue de Saint-Cloud, dont voici un détail.

What a curve and colors.
I LOVE these curved buildings. Bath and London, England, have some, as well, and I'm sure other places in Europe do, too. America does NOT and I think we're missing out on some beautiful architecture as a result.
I agree with Becky. We stayed with dear friends in London once and their flat looked over a curve of homes like this. So beautiful, so graceful.
You mean to say those buildings actually curve around with the road? Holy ... Beautiful photograph of gorgeous buildings.
I guess it's a good thing if you came home late a little tipsy and couldn't walk a straight line anyway... :-)
Yes, everything is just fine. A checkup was all. Thanks for asking!
Beautiful framing of the buildings ...
How beautiful a sight indeed.
Please have a good Thursday.

The curve of these buildings is intruiging and quite unusual... What a beautiful street!

Great curve! Am a bit prejudiced here. . . Beautiful architecture.
This design is such grand architecture. The Royal Crescent in Bath, England, may be the best example. I can't think of anything like it in the US.
Hi, Ciel. Very nice picture. The thing that strikes me about these buildings is that each one has the floors and windows at a different level.
I like very much the gentle curve of these buildings. Very attractive.
les lignes des immeuble très créative en pierre de versailles.
Wonderful shot. I love the curve. MB
Truly unique and lovely! Great photo composition.
il y a une belle tonalité sur ta photo, comme un léger hdr, tu as fait un post-traitemet ? (hors recadrage)
un renforcement qui lui va bien
I think that curved or angled building fronts are cool.
Hi Ciel...re your comment on Florida Fotos (the Hilton)...these folks were mostly business people - grabbing a bit to eat while on the phone, working with their laptops, etc. All very brisk and busy!
It was depressing to this old, retired guy!
Curved façades are always more interesting and a better subject for photographs.
How gorgeous. I loved peeping in through the windows of these places when it was dusk and they had their lights on. I am so nosey.
ça fait penser à certains quartiers de Londres..Et dans la même courbe, tous les immeubles sont differents, c'est super!
Love the curve! What an interesting bit of architecture. The colors, dormers, shutters etc. all make for a wonderful scene.
BTW: forests here are managed also---replanted---but remember it take years for a tree to grow to use. MB
I love the curve and the lovely facades! :)

I have not seen anything to equal this in the United States. I never saw a row house until Patty and I had to move to Baltimore, Maryland to finish my Army service.
I like the curvy detail! Windows, windows everywhere.
A beautiful curve!
I like that curve and all those windows!
Regal buildings, and unusual curve. PS to my previous comment, oh, I now see on your sidebar that you too have cold weather with overcast skies... :-) Enjoy your weekend anyway. I'll be on the road to Moldova for the next few days... hope to be able to snap photos on the run (it's a work rip so not much time to linger)... :-)
