I've visited Corbusier's home in the 16th and really enjoyed it.

Let us know if you find it on your upcoming trip (and maybe share the address!). I'm sure this is something hubby would like to check out. Darcy, tell us more about the house you visited!

Annette/Steve, here is a youtube video of Villa la Roche designed by and lived in by Le Corbusier. It's in the 16th. I'll post the address when I find it tomorrow. It's a great place and there's never any tourists there.

Oh, and you can actually sit on the furniture there and rest awhile!

Found the address: 10 Square du Docteur Blanche
Mº Jasmin or Michel-Ange Auteuil

holger: It really does seem as if the site is moribund. Too bad and as I no longer have emails for anyone on my computer just want to wish you all well. I do check periodically but mostly now go to slow travel and the France forum there. Apr 22, 2015 7:54:32 GMT -5
