De briques

Just a building in Montreuil neighhourhood with this statue in the middle of the courtyard. It looks like it might at least originally, have been built as 'inexpensive housing'. Not sure though.

Juste un immeuble à Montreuil, avec cette statue au milieu de la cour. On dirait que cet immeuble a été construit comme logement aidé, mais je n'en suis pas sûre !

Great looking apartment building, I like the balconies! Wouldn't mind having that one here in Portland!! Hope you have a great weekend, Ciel! Enjoy!

If this is "inexpensive housing," then bravo. It has more style and interest than many other examples of inexpensive housing I have seen. I tried to enlarge the first photo to see the sculpture. It looks like a husband, wife and child.

They have a little more flair than the subsidized housing here!

It looks quite nice.

I'd happily live there, especially if it's inexpensive! Love those balconies.

Good to see they each have a nice outside space with the balcony too!

I like the rounded balconies Ciel, even subsidised housing in Versailles is a bit stylish..
P.s. I guarantee Ciel, if Aimee came to visit you , you would gain at least 5 kilos :))

The balconies would entice me, but I'll bet it's not inexpensive now! The colors are nice, too - soothing.

The balconies are the best feature of the building. I, too, am surprised at the "inexpensive" label...would love to find one like that here; I'd move into it in a minute since I am ready to downsize.

Is that a helmet she's wearing? Tough neighborhood? hahahahaha

Is it expensive housing now? The design is quite attractive.

If this is your kind of inexpensive housing, Versailles is really a rich city!

I wear my helmet religiously, but I remove it as soon as I get off the bike, I do not like walking around, I look silly.

Neat balconies, I like the curves.
