@hawkeye10,
One day some years ago a woman came into our small town gallery and design studio. She was one person I had, up to then, found on line writing about piazzas. Yes, an architect and somewhat his brother, but those were mostly diagrams, and I respect them.
I've read at least a hundred books where piazzas come into play.
Our visitor had written a good book about a piazza I'm foot tied to, the Campo, so I recognized her name when she introduced herself. My emphasis re piazzas was wider, but I didn't explain. She was polite but a little miffed re the surprise re meeting me, when I mentioned my own interest, which I fully get. Who could guessed there was a piazza fanatic in an art gallery? Hey, two crazies in one room..
I have her book here somewhere in my room and will post about it, nothing bad, but not tonight, I've shelves on shelves.
What has any of this about community by me have to do with Paris?
A lot.
