Curious Minds Further Viewing: Paris, 19th Century: The Invention of the Modern City
Curious Minds Further Viewing: Dive deeper into the fascinating subjects explored at our Curious Minds Speaker Series.
Paris’s distinctive look and feel can be traced back to its architectural revitalization in the 1860s, when planner Baron Haussmann transformed “la Ville Lumière” into the first modern city, with iconic wide boulevards and distinctive streetscapes. Not to be lost in the change, though, were the beautiful old neighbourhoods with narrow streets and low-rise housing. As a companion to our Inventing Modern Paris series, follow prominent architectural historian François Loyer on a journey to uncover the fascinating history of one of the world’s greatest cities.
