The image displays a street-level view of the Hôtel de ville de Roubaix, situated at 2 Grand'Place, Roubaix, France, under a clear, sunny sky. The central subject is the multi-story Hôtel de ville, a Neoclassical/Beaux-Arts style building constructed of light-colored ashlar masonry. It features an elaborately sculpted facade with numerous classical architectural elements, including columns, pilasters, balustrades, and bas-reliefs. A central clock face is positioned on the second floor above the main entrance. The building is topped with a dark slate-grey mansard roof featuring multiple dormer windows, and a prominent central clock tower culminates in a tall, slender spire. Below the main building entrance, a wide set of stone steps descends to street level. Several individuals are visible on these steps, appearing stationary or slowly moving. To the right of the building's main entrance, three flags are flown from poles: a French tricolor flag, a European Union flag, and a plain white flag. In the foreground and middle ground, a queue of stationary private passenger vehicles occupies the street, indicating traffic congestion. Observable vehicles include a silver hatchback in the immediate foreground, a dark blue Volkswagen Golf (license plate HE-687-YC) in the middle right, a white hatchback to its left, and a dark sedan. A male driver with a dark beard is visible through the window of the dark sedan. Streetlights with multiple fixtures and dark square planters containing small trees are present along the curb separating the building's steps from the roadway. The sky is bright blue with minimal cloud cover.
