If You’re Building An Apartment Block, Might As Well Make It Cheerful!
By Christa TerryA block of apartments in Chartres, France — a lovely, lovely place — might have looked like any other, were it not for four months of what must have been strenuous painting.
Aren’t they fun? Various areas are done in differing styles so you get a little taste of everything. I sadly don’t know anything about these apartments other than their locale, but more pics can’t be seen here.

NTB do you rmember the three murals on Newbury St. in Boston? I lived in the building that had this one:

I think it may be gone though

I don’t know that I ever saw that in person, Phyllis, but The Beard remembers it. Nice spot you lived in 😉

My apartment was the one on the second floor with the blue blinds (which I installed and they remained there for almost 10 years!) I lived there there in the 80’s; I couldn’t afford to live in Back Bay these days. Living on Newbury St. was rather like living in a mall to be honest. Hoards of people day and night.

Out of my league when I was there in the 90s. Was it noisy? I would think it would be noisy.
