EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of The United States district in Lyon, a masterpiece of architectural design by Tony Garnier. Constructed between 1919-1934, this miniature city was conceived as a socialist utopia, inspired by the great ideals of the 19th century. Thanks to Edouard Herriot, mayor of Lyon at the time, Garnier was able to bring his vision to life.
The district is based on the principle of incorporating gardens into urban planning, a concept that was revolutionary for its time. The intricate details and thoughtful layout showcase Garnier's dedication to creating a harmonious living environment for residents.
In 1993-1998, the district underwent extensive renovation to preserve its historical significance and ensure its longevity for future generations. This photograph taken in 1993 beautifully captures the essence of Garnier's work and serves as a testament to his enduring legacy.
As you gaze upon this image, you can't help but marvel at the creativity and innovation that went into designing such a unique space. The United States district in Lyon stands as a testament to Garnier's genius and remains an important cultural landmark in France.
