A Penthouse View
#1

A little while back I went on a walking tour of some new condos in Downtown Memphis. These consisted of some renovated warehouses and one former high-rise hotel on the riverfront. From a couple of the penthouses I got to see downtown Memphis from a new vantage point. The views were beautiful, and so were the interiors of these places. They had them all very nicely professionally decorated for the tour, and if anyone is interested in seeing those shots, I’ll be glad to post them too. It was interesting to get a glimpse of a way of living that I’ll probably never afford.

Hello Anne, I can see why you would be drawn to such wonderful view. I would love to have a view of water. In my first real job I lived in Montreal and I rented an appartment vith a river view. The river widened to a lake at that point and every morning my first steps lead to the window to look at the new view that opened up in front of me, depending on weather and season. Nice brass telescope too. Thanks for postinbg these photos. Pavel

Oh, I know. Believe me, if I could live anywhere I wanted, I’d live out in the countryside. I don’t really envy those downtown condo-dwellers. The homes and the views were nice, but I’ve always dreamed of having a little house in the country…..someday…..

Don't leave it too long or you won't have time to enjoy it. When your eyesight starts failing and your knees start creaking that's the time for a ground floor flat near the supermarket. Big Grin
