Proposal for « Place de la République » in Paris

STATUS
Concept
Place de la République as public space
Transforming a traffic junction into an urban space means, firstly, reducing the impact of road traffic. Having addressed the traffic, the challenge is to transform the place into an urban space.
1. Pavements and plaza
We propose a substantial increase in pavement space, concentrating all specifically urban flows (buses and taxis) around its edge. The pavement, transformed into a boulevard, would then be able to accommodate both pedestrian traffic and the kiosks and galleries that house the overflow of ground-floor businesses, as well as being a place for people to sit and rest.
The central plaza, also enlarged, would be of a different nature: a space for demonstration and representation that can coexist with the more domestic, ludic presence of nature. Monument esplanade, garden.
