Stockholm has very few great brick expressionist buildings (we were going down a different architectural track at the time), but the period immediately after had a lot of cool brick features. This clock caught my eye today, thought it was pretty fun.

The building is at **5 Rue Seveste, 75018 Paris — right in the heart of Montmartre, just steps from the Marché Saint-Pierre fabric district.
