"Phallic symbolism in the ironwork on the balcony."

Commissioned by a wealthy 18th century family by the name of Alberta, the Place d’Albertas group of residences has a regency yet baroque style façade. The area also used to have a brothel near by, which justifies the phallic symbolism in the ironwork on the balcony.
