Hudec’s Normandie redone!
I pass the Normandie Apartments or Wukang Mansion as it’s called now from my day to work everyday,
they redid the outside recently and now also gave the interior a facelift.
Being one of my favorite old french concession buildings, I just thought this requires a post.
And I took some pictures on my day home yesterday for y’all to see.

A little history:
The Normandie apartments were built for the internationl savings society in 1924.
The international savings society was like a lottery that once entered you had to keep playing unless you’re willing to give up a significant amount of fines.
It was designed by our favorite laszlo hudec who we already introduce here.
