New Embassies in Europe in folded Vienna plan
The Italian government, following Washington, has appropriated funds to secure new embassies in Paris and Vienna before Count Tormelli's death. Negotiations target the Prince de Sagan palace, but the lease on the present embassy is renewed for a year. Vienna will choose suitable homes for ambasadors of both powers, with Paris already boasting a grand new house. The United States and Italy seek larger quarters, as could be expected versus Britain and Germany.
