Rue du Rhône

in Geneva
Portrait

The street runs on the line of the old lakeside fortifications, demolished in the 1850s when Geneva decided it no longer needed walls. What replaced them is a single row of watch windows facing the water, and the rents behind those windows are the highest in Switzerland.

This is a street, not an entry in the atlas. It resolves upward to the city that holds it.
