Great article as always! And I have to admit that I had no idea about the Frankenstein statue, though I must have walked past it a thousand times. I'll check it out. You may enjoy this article about Mary Shelley's time out here--it's one of my favorites, and a few years ago there were a lot of commemorative events about that famous summer she, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Lord Byron (along with a few others) spent alongside the Leman.

To be fair, Sisi didn't die in the hotel.
No? Where did she die?
That is now (sigh) Historic Landmark Boston City Hall.
So interesting. Thx for sharing
