EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the United States district in Lyon, France, a visionary architectural project conceived by Tony Garnier in the early 20th century. Thanks to the support of Edouard Herriot, mayor of Lyon at the time, Garnier was able to bring his socialist utopian vision to life through this miniature city design.
Inspired by both European and American urban planning principles, Garnier created a unique space that combined functionality with beauty. The district features lush gardens and innovative architecture that reflect the progressive ideals of its time.
The photograph, taken during the renovation of the district in 1993-1998, showcases Garnier's masterful design and attention to detail. Each building and green space is carefully arranged to create a harmonious environment for residents.
As we admire this image, we are reminded of the power of architecture to shape our communities and inspire future generations. The United States district stands as a testament to Garnier's creativity and foresight, offering a glimpse into an alternative vision for urban living.
Through this photo print, we can appreciate not only the physical beauty of the district but also its historical significance as a symbol of innovation and progress.
