EDITORS COMMENTS
Building the Paris Metro: A Testament to Engineering Innovation and Urban Development This photograph, taken in 1907, captures a significant moment in the history of Parisian transportation: the construction of the Paris Metro at Boulevard Saint-André, near the Saint-Michel area. The image showcases the unique method used during the early 1900s to build the underground metro system. The Paris Metro, also known as the Métropolitain, was the world's first large-scale, fully automated metro system. In the photograph, we see a tube that was initially constructed above ground. This section of the metro was later sunk below street level after the tunnels were dug out. The innovative construction technique allowed for the efficient and cost-effective expansion of the metro network, revolutionizing public transportation in Paris. The metro line visible in the photograph is not mentioned in the caption, but it is believed to be part of the Line 4, which was opened in 1910. The Paris Metro's construction began in 1898, and by 1900, the first line, Line 1, was operational. The system's expansion continued throughout the early 1900s, making it an essential part of the city's urban development. The photograph serves as a testament to the engineering prowess and ingenuity of the time. The Paris Metro's construction not only transformed the way Parisians traveled but also set the standard for urban transportation systems around the world. This image, taken at Boulevard Saint-André in 1907, is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the history of public transportation in Paris and beyond.
