Tour de St Jacques

Near our apartment and serving as a useful
landmark is the Tour de St Jacques.  It is now
the centerpiece of a small park on Rue de Rivoli.
This soaring Gothic tower is the sole remnant of
an ancient cathedral.  Here are a few sketches
of its stone critters made while sitting on a bench...
as children, punks and old men milled about.
