RE: Lyon Architectural Tour in France

I couldn't decide which part I should choose of this Lyon city because both are very unique and different from each other. One gives me modern vibes and the other is completely historical. I really like that Deconstructivist style museum, a very innovative unique style, and looks iconic to me. For me Old part is good for exploration but if I wanna live there I would choose new Lyon. Such a clean beautiful city...

The old and the new harmonized well. I think I would be in a dilemma if I were to pick an apartment between the charming old-style flat or in a state-of-the-art building. Although the latter assures ease of living and the absence of maintenance hassles that come with old buildings. Thank you for your lovely comment

Well, here people prefer Soviet Building apartments for living rather than New building apartments, even these old Soviets flats are more expensive than the new ones. I always wonder why because unfortunately I now live in a new style studio. I asked many people and they said comfort, insulation and longevity, durability matters, and considering these things, they prefer Soviet Buildings. But yes, as you have said, maintenance matters a lot...

That's interesting to know, the preference towards Soviet Buildings there. How's your new studio treating you? Hope all is well.
