TAKE a walk along the Seine in southeast Paris, about a mile east of Notre Dame Cathedral, and you’ll see a dense collection of boxy glass-and-steel office buildings, futuristic apartments, cleverly converted industrial structures, concrete mixers, forklifts and cranes. It’s what some consider a linchpin of Paris’s future: a huge development area on former industrial land and railway yards that could give a much-needed jolt to the city’s aging urban core.

Several prominent architects from France and other countries have had a hand in the project, whose building styles range from buttoned-up corporate to cutting-edge contemporary. Supporters laud the development, known as Paris Rive Gauche, as a futuristic alternative that could help revive the city’s economy and its struggling universities while creating much-needed housing.

But some in this always-opinionated city denounce it as a stale corporate wasteland. Not only does it lack neighborhood character, they say, but it is also gobbling up precious land that might be better devoted to parks, small shops and cultural spaces.

Either way it represents one of the last major zones for new development in a city whose boundaries, basically unchanged since the 19th century, have been filled to the limit.

The 321-acre project, in the making since 1990, brims with almost 100 office buildings, university facilities and apartment structures, about half completed. With its glassy new buildings and frenetic air of constant construction, the area seems more akin to Shanghai or some other city of cranes than the City of Light.

Most notably the goal is architectural variety. Unlike much of Paris, where buildings generally emulate one another on a given street, the area offers a broad mix of building styles. Although the various zones within the project must abide by height and massing regulations, there are relatively few design imperatives, and the master planning has been divvied among eight architects to ensure even greater diversity.

These include French architects like the Pritzker Prize winner Christian de Portzamparc, who planned the zone’s Masséna quarter; Paul Andreu, who mapped development on the Avenue de France, one of the site’s main commercial axes; and Bruno Fortier, who designed the Rue du Chevaleret, another major artery...

That's unfair. With the library, there's no shortage of cultural spaces.
