They were planned by François-Joseph Bélanger at the end of the 1770s, and Saint James’ one instruction for his architect...

Up there with the prettiest parks in the city, Parc Monceau is in the English style, and has sinuous paths and rolling lawns instead of a French geometric parterre. The park was laid out for a cousin of Louis XVI, who was guillotined in the Reign of Terror. Eventually it ended up in the hands of the city and became the first public park created by ...
The city’s futuristic business district is on the other bank of the Seine and was planned in the 1960s as a way of keeping modern architecture out of the centre of Paris.
