St. Sulpice still under construction??
 
Does anyone know if the Eglise St. Sulpice is still under re-construction? The google map satellite picture shows it all shrouded, and the little park looks all covered up too, but then I saw another photo elsewhere, showing the shrouding, but dating the photo as 2008.
Just wanting to check as our traveling companions think they want to try to stay at the Hotel Relais St. Sulpice, because they love the church and the square. thanks.

No, the renovations ended two or three months ago.

Oh, thanks, Kerouac, I sort of knew that you would know, and just glad that you are on the net today! You are eyes-on Paris all the time I guess!

I have pictures of it in my trip report from two weeks ago (April in Paris). It's no longer under construction.

Oh, thanks, Ellen. I had looked at your photos, but missed the fact that St. Sulpice was in one of them. Gave me a chance to have another look at your great photos!

I haven't even been by there but there was an article a while back in "20 Minutes" (one of the free commuter newspapers) about the work being finished at last.
