EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of The United States district in Lyon, a visionary architectural project brought to life by the talented architect Tony Garnier. Constructed between 1919 and 1934, this unique district was conceived as a miniature city, inspired by the socialist utopias of the 19th century. Thanks to Edouard Herriot, mayor of Lyon at the time, Garnier was able to turn his innovative vision into reality.
The design of The United States district is based on the principles of urban planning and green spaces that were popular in both Europe and America during that period. It is truly a testament to Garnier's forward-thinking approach to architecture and city planning.
In this photograph taken in 1993 during the renovation of the district, we can see how Garnier's original concept has stood the test of time. The intricate details and thoughtful layout of the buildings showcase his dedication to creating a harmonious living environment for residents.
As we admire this stunning image, we are reminded of Garnier's lasting legacy in Lyon and beyond. His work continues to inspire architects and urban planners around the world, proving that great design knows no bounds.
