An amazing structure!
But nope, they changed something - check the tops of the risalits/avantcorps and the turrets behind - the battlements are gone. The nice proportions are gone too.
IMHO the crenels were very attractive!

An interesting detail: the monument visible on both photos, is a statue of Napoleon Bonaparte.
P.S. .....as a young officer.

Cheers!

Found this recently:
Piazza Tasso, Sorrento. All buildings are exactly the same today.
No condos, no new developments, no "optimized multi-use of urban spaces". No sh...t!

Station 153, 8th USAAF, Framlingham, Suffolk, UK. The control tower in 1944, and as it is today.
This is now the 390th Bomb Group Museum and The Museum of the British Resistance, and more pics and info can be found in my thread "The Travels of Tel's Tin Tent".
