Destruction de Pavillons des Halles

“Début des opérations de rénovation du quartier des Halles avec le démontage et/ou la destruction des Pavillons Baltard. Le président de la société d’économie mixte pour l’aménagement des Halles, Monsieur de la Malène, a annoncé que certains pavillons ne seront pas détruits, mais démontés et remontés dans le périmètre de rénovation des Halles ou à l’extérieur de Paris.”

“Images from Paris cafés and nightlife in 1962, the same week Yves St. Laurent’s runway show vaulted Dior to new heights. Many scenes around Les Halles (which no longer exists as it did then).”
