Rather sad and neglected. In Milan balcony flowers are not a priority it seems.
Except for the modern business district…

The last photograph is really striking. There’s almost room for a tribe of natives hunting little monkeys with blowpipes.

That final photo is amazing – or rather the subject matter is. It looks fabulous and unreal at the same time!

That high rise with green everywhere is great. – But there was one in Melbourne and something went wrong and they all died. It looked absolutely dreadful for a couple of months while the tenants fought with the owners.

Just empty balconies now then?

Oh a few have some potted plants, some have strung lines across to dry their knickers on, but most are just empty. It was probably a great selling point but once the units were sold it all got lost.

Had to stare at that last one for a bit before realizing it wasn’t an aerial shot of city streets with trees. Or perhaps I’m just tired… 😉

Love all the balconies, even the one with dead plants. It’s interesting, at the very least. Something about balconies makes me feel like it’s a special treat; a bonus to the rest of the building.
