Cité des Fleurs - bis


April 5 I promised to go back to the small side street "Cité des Fleurs" when there were flowers on the trees. Here you have some samples. It would be nice to have a (small) garden in front of my flat. An alternative could be to have a roof flat with a garden.














... but I guess the best I could go for would be something like this (the flat in front of mine).

Cité des Fleurs

It's surprising, when you walk along a "normal" street, suddenly there is a small "hidden" street, to the right or to the left. This is one of them, called "Cité des Fleurs". Buildings are often one family houses, but today in many cases transormed into multiple flat ones. They have all a nice garden in front of them. When the street was created (1847), owners had the obligation to plant at least three - flowering - trees. Today, there are many more and soon they will look even nicer.
