Hey Charles, good to hear from you. Actually I do not know. Embassies, or technically the chancery, are considered "foreign soil" so I would suspect not, but I don't know the subtleties of the law or tax codes. The OAS on the other hand is something entirely different, and I suspect it is probably "federal land", but again I do not know what the property tax positions would be.
Very good, job my friend! Now wait for the statue of Christopher Columbus. By the way ... it was a nautical misunderstanding that the Columbus had discovered America at all because he was originally traveling to India. Actually, he called upon entering the country, the native population wrongly Indian in the conviction that he was in India.
Thanks Ettore. We did touch on the Christopher Columbus statue when we did the episode on Union Station: ruclips.net/video/S8l60zmouI8/видео.htmlm48s I suppose it might be something we wanted to devote an entire episode to all by itself.
Do you know the embassies and these organization pay property taxes?

Certainly the Columbus (the touch) has inspired you. 😄😄😄
They have a statue of queen Isabella a European queen idk why it would be Bolivar
I wish we would expand this to a Union of the Americas and be like the European Union 🇪🇺
Interesting idea. One that had not occurred to me. I think it is unlikely in my lifetime, but one never knows.
Dear Paul you said beautiful statue of isabeala but it sound a bit scary to me look at this a black large statue dont you think it is horrible
Well, the camera doesn't do the sculpture justice. It's bronze, and it's dark due to the patina on the metal.
