Le Pied Atere
what does it mean?

Pied á terre is a French term. It means an apartment that someone keeps in the city and uses during the work week. They go to their main house in the outer suburbs on the weekends and holidays :)

like upper-class people in England have a townhouse/flat/condo in London, and a country mansion outside London...

thank you speed..this name suitable for langsuan condo or mansion
how to pronounce it?

nice one:) imagine how it will add to the Langsuan's density.

thank you speed..this name suitable for langsuan condo or mansion
how to pronounce it?

In the US, I believe you pronounce it something like :"pee-ed ah tearr", but Im sure French speakers will pronouce it differently :D this word is becoming pretty common in English because now many city people have an apartment downtown and also a house in the suburbs...

we have hi-jacked many foreign words into the English language :tongue2:

if the new building is between Marriott Mayfair and Grand Langsuan, I feel a bit sorry for the condo people in Grand Langsuan because they might totally lose their view :uh:

Nice project, nice design and cool for Langsuan area.

Once its built, cab drivers will have a fun time figuring out where in langsuan this is... with such an exotic name

Once its built, cab drivers will have a fun time figuring out where in langsuan this is... with such an exotic name

hehe yup, its exotic but only for marketing purposes :colgate:

for taxi cabs, just say Langsuan Soi 1....at that intersection, the building will stand :)

intersection soi 1, is that the canteen neay Mayfair and Millinia Tower?

I think its the site of the temporary canteen building between Marriott Mayfair building and the Grand Langsuan building....Im just guessing that this is the site.....(its seems to be the most available land plot on LangSuan) :)

is that piece freehold or leasehold as well?

just a wild guess that its "freehold" because next door Grand Langsuan and also Langsuanville is freehold....

right it is is. 600,000 baht/sq.wah i heard. anyway, i think all those shops signed a long term lease there, i dont see hpw they can start construction in 2006, if it is tht site... there is another canteen down the soi

there is a parking lot alittle down the road....could it be that plot maybe??

That isnt the site.

Late last year, one of the big property agencies call me to inform me that this year, the canteen besides grand langsuan will be built into a condo..

spoke to the hair salon staff there and they have been told they have to move this year.. so maybe its that plot.

it it is the other carpark for le pied atere, we will have 2 developments in langsuan

so, it is second time people ask them to move in the last two years!!! was is not Sansiri that was on plan at that time??

So, we all think the location is between That yellow building (Mayfair Marriott) and The Grand Langsuan (The Tall Pink triangular top Tower)??

Lets imagine it's standing up there then,...:cool:

So, we all think the location is between That yellow building (Mayfair Marriott) and The Grand Langsuan (The Tall Pink triangular top Tower)??It think that's the location. The "Tent" (canteen) will need to close by 20 Feb :wave:

Feb 21, 2006 :

All businesses are closed, the building is also being brought down.

:wave: bye bye friends..feel sorry that you have to close the shop down

Well, this project will be located closely to the street, that's great, good location.

yeah feel sorry for them though but on the other hand, it will make the area looks nicer .. hopefully, they will make a nice friendly sidewalk and bury the powerlines into the ground..

hope they will rise something this time. it is the third time they ask them to close the shops

how many storey are these guys? Is Le Pied Atere going to be the same heights?

It will be taller than The Mayfair Marriott (yellow) but shorter than The Grand Langsuan (Pink).

thanks man

is that leasehold also? any people have idea of leasehold price in Langsuan??

because its on the same side of the street as GrandLangsuan (freehold) and Langsuanville (freehold), I would guess that LePiedAtere is freehold (but just a guess).

One leasehold 2 bedroom unit (129 sqm) in Urbana Langsuan (across the street) which is 29 year leasehold, is on sale for about B84,500 per sqm....<http://www.hamptons.co.th/>

freehold is alot more I would imagine (maybe closer to B110,000 sqm or more)
but I dont think you can beat Soi Langsuan location :colgate:

oh! that's quite expensive though but yeah, we can't beat Langsuan location.

wow all the shops are gone... so fast. good to see.

http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/6505/p10202335sh.jpg

there's still a small suit tailor shop on the left side :colgate: ..... maybe they will move out soon :runaway: what a great location....

It's such a superb location indeed but you see, view from it will be blocked 2 sides, left and right.

not only left and right. front and back are also somewhat blocked.

not only left and right. front and back are also somewhat blocked.

is it apt or condo?

with everyside blocked, i wonder who will buy if it was a condo..

It's a serviced apartment, I think.

There is a road on the left (on Grand Langsuan side) that leads to another land plot (possible for 30 Storey Building), wondering what will pops up there.

wow.....another serviced apartment on Langsuan??.....

Centrepoint, NaturalVille, FraserPlace, Capehouse, MarriottMayfair and SomersetSuwan (on SoiTonSon) must all be doing VERY well to attract yet another serviced apartment on the street! :colgate:

Clearer Rendering..:)

Now that's something different! I really wonder what it looks like up at the top... it's like an alien or a giant insect peeking out! Too vivid fantasy? :)

kinda looks Korean

Interesting to see the details of the decoration on the top and its colour in real life.

I thought it looks like those Dubai's fatasy...:D

unique design. ;)

Good Lord!!! What a design it is!!! I don't know really if I like it or not just amazing!!!

i hope it will actually look better than the rendering

ดูจีนๆ ผสมฝรั่ง แปลกดี

ดูจีนๆ ผสมฝรั่ง แปลกดี

แถมชื่อฝรั่งเศสซะด้วย........มันแปลกดีนะ.. :D

looks like something from the shanghai scene...

will look out of place sandwiched between mayfair and grand langsuan

when I said it looks Korean I meant something like this

http://www.anthroarcheart.org/grfx/t21f.JPG

saw that resemblance when i saw the roof initially..

I am wondering if they will paint her a bloody red color like in its rendering?

everything looks really Asian

This tower is a combination of Asian elements,lol ....but French name,lol.

like you guys said !! :D

Hi, speed.

They changed its name from "Le Pied Aterre" to "Le Pier Aterre".

Do they mean the same?

I have no clue about the meaning, but seems liek they changed the name..:)

I guess the real name is Le Pied-a-Terre, simply because it means "lodging for occasional use" in French. Le Pierr Aterre makes no sense in French nor in any other language I know, but who knows, I may be mistaken.

Hmm, Maybe they just misspelling again....Should be like you said since Speed also mentioned the meaning of Le Pied A Terre earlier too.

Le pied-a-terre means to have something in town when you come over here. Hi-so likes to have a pied-a-terre in each capital cities in the world. But le Pier-Attere is a total misspelling, 'attere' means affraid/estonished and 'pier' is not French at all.

:hilarious

Ok seems liek they miss-spelled it "as usual:..lol

Pied á terre is a French term. It means an apartment that someone keeps in the city and uses during the work week. They go to their main house in the outer suburbs on the weekends and holidays :)


I wrote the above in an earlier post :)

yes, Zimoune is right of course.... we even use this French word alot in America..... it is common for even normal people to have a small condo in the inner city (like in San Francisco or New York) and we call it a "pied á terre", but the main residence is in the suburbs or even farther out.....

people in Bangkok even do this.....some people have a small condo in the CBD, but they also have a house in the suburbs with green trees :)

I think they just misspelled the name on the billboard.....

I kinda like the design of the building....round bay windows are my favorite....maybe paint the building bright "candy apple" Ferrari red....WOW!! it will stand out in between the old ladies "Marriott Mayfair" and "GrandLangusan" and be famous... :horse:

Yeah Thai have peid-a-terre but they call it 'gik place' ;)
