I suspect either a tray table was down, or one of the window blinds was still half open.

En 1925, Le Corbusier propose de raser le Marais.

Pas une ruelle. Pas un îlot. Le quartier entier.

240 hectares de Paris rive droite, du Temple aux Halles, condamnés sur le papier. À la place : dix-huit gratte-ciel en croix, soixante étages, posés sur une dalle traversée d'autoroutes.

Il appelle ça le Plan Voisin, du nom de l'avionneur qui le finance. L'idée tient en une phrase : la vieille ville est malade, il faut la remplacer.

Hôtels particuliers, hôtel de Soubise, ruelles médiévales, tout disparaît. Le Corbusier y voit du progrès. Une ville pour l'automobile, l'air, la lumière.

Le projet ne verra jamais le jour. Trop radical, trop brutal, refusé en bloc.

Aujourd'hui, le Marais est l'un des quartiers les plus visités d'Europe. Ses hôtels du XVIIe siècle, ses cours pavées, tout ce que Le Corbusier voulait effacer fait sa valeur.

Le Paris qu'on aime tant a failli tenir dans dix-huit tours de béton.

Qu'est-ce qui fait qu'on décide qu'un quartier mérite d'être sauvé, ou rasé ?

Plans released for a $16 billion mile-long ship capable of carrying 80,000 people.

The 'Freedom Ship' would be home to about 50,000 people, with space for 10,000 tourists and 20,000 crew members.

"The Freedom Ship is envisioned as a permanently mobile city at sea designed for long-term residence rather than short-term travel," the company says.

The ship would be about 8 times the size of the current largest ship in the world, the Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas.

The plans include a 15,000-seat stadium, schools, colleges, shops, clubs, a water park, a music hall, museums, parks, and more.

The ship, which would run on nuclear, would be too large to dock and would remain in international waters.

Freedom Cruise International says it would go around the world every two to three years.

Insane.

La France "première destination touristique mondiale" c'est du flan : ce qui compte, ce ne sont pas les arrivées mais les nuitées, et en 2025 l’Espagne en a enregistré 322 millions, l’Italie 254 millions, contre seulement 140 millions pour l’Hexagone...
