@Claudia2, I don't see a washing machine, but the building looks friendly, with all the rounded forms.
Whilst @Kirstie's hanging path between buildings is a bit menacing, when you look up.
I did not get the first mail notifications, only the second one - logged in by curiosity, what a mail without text is about. Good trick!
I grew up in a house built in 1448, therefore I like old buildings for living (if there is Internet). But in the city, I like the mixture of old and new. We just got a new cinema a few steps from my place. It's in front of a big old church, style cathedral, and between old apartment buildings. To construct a new cinema there, was a challenge. They could not go much higher, but they wanted more space inside - during construction, it was visible, that they stacked the theater rooms one over another inclined, not wasting the space under the rows of chairs. Those things are hard to plan entirely: the ground under Paris is like a Swiss cheese, as the town is built with stones dug out from under its feet. When they removed the old cinema, the buildings on the left and the right started to lean towards the now empty space, the ground was giving a bit. It took a few months to replan, to build in steps: first the side walls, then some of the structure between, then take out the ribs of the old building and finish sides and structure as you go.
The front was glass at a time during construction, which looked cool, but in the end, it's a huge led screen. I took a few pictures over time, some are on my listing too. Normally, the screen shows cinéma posters, the national colors were flashing on the day of the Nice attacks - an effective way to alert people that something is going on, and to show solidarity.
