EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the architectural masterpiece that is The United States district in Lyon, France. Designed by renowned architect Tony Garnier between 1919 and 1934, this unique urban development was brought to life thanks to the vision of Edouard Herriot, the mayor of Lyon at the time.
Inspired by socialist utopias of the 19th century, Garnier conceived this district as a miniature city, incorporating principles of garden cities that were being implemented in Europe and the United States. The result is a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetics, with carefully planned green spaces enhancing the overall design.
The district underwent a major renovation from 1993 to 1998, preserving its historical significance while ensuring it remains relevant for modern residents. This photograph taken in 1993 beautifully captures Garnier's innovative design and showcases the timeless appeal of this architectural gem.
As we admire this image, we are reminded of the power of visionary architects like Tony Garnier who shape our urban landscapes for generations to come. The United States district stands as a testament to his creativity and foresight, offering a glimpse into an idealized cityscape where form meets function seamlessly.
