So that photo you posted a few weeks back on Guernsey where it looked like they were putting styrofoam up on a building turns out to be the latest Belvedere atrocity – BELVEDERE XL!

When I read the above email I thought she had certainly made a typo. I was all too wrong.

Presenting Belvedere XL!

God, this is just screams great advertising copy like:

Livin’ Large At Belvedere Forty

or

Sip Your Forty At Belvedere Forty!

or best yet

Belvedere 40 …Works Everytime!

I want to give a big thanks to Diana G and the wizards at Belvedere Realty for giving me the biggest laugh I’ve had all week!

P.S.: I am still eagerly awaiting the debut of Belvedere 30. Think about it.

  2. Wow! That sure is… special.

    Wait… How can they be up to 40 already?!

    Yeah, they’ll be fighting for that triple X Belvedere for sure.

  6. If it’s Belvedere XL, shouldn’t that be “Livin’ Extra Large?”

  8. Rexlic: Shut up or I’ll smother you with my Twinkie laden ass!

    Just kidding 😉

  10. I was happy to facilitate the fun today, as soon as I walked past that on the way to the park I knew I had to inform NYS! The photo doesn’t do justice to quite how hideous that structure is, especially that, er, rustic salmon color.

  12. it’s too easy to make porn jokes and graffiti on a building called Belvedere XXX.

Tell me what you're thinking...
and oh, if you want a pic to show with your comment, go get a gravatar!
