Here's the second part of a photographic series of posts, with views from my home, mostly towards the western mountains and suburbs of Athens.
The
first one below, is of a residential building at Aghias Lavras St., in
the neighborhood of Ano Patissia. It's one of the few tall buildings in
Greece, with a total of 16 floors above ground. For a full list and
history of Athens' tall buildings take a look at this thread, in "Skyscrapercity.com".
