Super! La Defense is probably my least favourite part of Paris, but these pictures show that it has far more exciting and innovative skyscrapers than most American cities.

That is great! I like this part of Paris better than even some of the historic sections, cause it shows how a city can have both the best classic archiecture and extremely progressive modern areas to appeal to any kind of archiecture fan... I'm sure a lot of people in the world don't even know Paris has a section of the city like this. It looks great!

... it would be a nightmare.

But it adds to the urban diversity of the metropolis.

Nice photos btw !

These pictures bear a striking resemblance to areas of Shinjuku and Akasaka in Tokyo, believe it or not.

:haha:
It is just a nice residencial area near la Defense.

I was looking for a thread like this, depicting the modern area of Paris, which I knew existed somewhere! If I should go to Paris again, that's where I'll go, directly from the Airport, and skip all that old stuff!

Now, I'm guessing there's a modern area of Rome as well, but how come we never get to see it!!!

Kingofthehill Dec 8, 2012 10:11 AM

IMBY, is there any reason why you are digging up threads from five years ago? Seriously, man.
