ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE DON'T LIVE IN PARIS ANYMORE & JEAN NOVEL NEW TOWER IN LA DEFENSE

Not because of of guys wearing plastic boots ... but because of the bad weather, after 10 years I just could not deal with it and many other things anymore (taxes being one of those things too ...) Anyway this year again, it is no exception for Roland Garros, usually the place where Parisians likes to go and show off their latest designer's sunglasses ... but today no luck for them, it was kind of wet.


Talking about Paris this is the future 300-meter-tall (985 feet) "Signal Tower" after the project by Architect Jean Nouvel was chosen in Paris. The tower will be constructed by 2015 at Paris' La Defence business district and will house office space, apartments and a hotel that would be happy to provide you with complimentary umbrellas ...




Those boots are actually very, very nice! Any idea what brand they are?

Nouvel is a disaster,what he has already built is ugly!

After that pic of future Paris? Give me LA. Paris is going to get ruined with all those phallic symbols. There is such a thing as trying too hard. And why does the weather suck in every pic that ohlalamag posts about Paris?

Qu'est ce qu'il ne faut pas lire comme conneries, Paris a une histoire, une ame alors que Los Angeles n'a rien de tout ca..
Mais Paris n'est pas la France et la France est encore un des plus beaux pays du monde.
La diversité de ses paysages, de ses monuments historiques, de son histoire, de ses coutumes, de ses fromages !!!
( bon il faudrait quand meme la vider d'une bonne partie de sa population pour etre peinard, mais il y a des cons partout )
