EDITORS COMMENTS
The United States district in Lyon, designed by architect Tony Garnier between 1919-1934, stands as a testament to the visionary urban planning of the early 20th century. Inspired by socialist utopias and garden city principles, Garnier created a miniature city within Lyon that aimed to provide a harmonious living environment for its residents.
Thanks to the support of Edouard Herriot, mayor of Lyon at the time, Garnier was able to bring his innovative vision to life. The district's unique layout and design reflect a blend of European and American influences, showcasing Garnier's forward-thinking approach to urban development.
This print captures the essence of Garnier's masterpiece, highlighting the intricate details and thoughtful design elements that make the United States district a true architectural gem. The renovation efforts from 1993-1998 have helped preserve this historic site for future generations to appreciate and enjoy.
As we gaze upon this image captured in 1993, we are reminded of the lasting impact that Tony Garnier has had on Lyon's landscape. His dedication to creating sustainable and livable communities continues to inspire architects and city planners around the world.
