This fourth book in a series of monographs on projects by h2o architectes looks back at the Chapelle Charbon urban development project in the 19th arrondissement of Paris, part of a major transformation of north-eastern Paris and, in particular, the area around Porte de la Chapelle. The project proposed by h2o aims to transform a former indus- trial and rail logistics site perceived as a nuisance into a new destination, in particular by connecting all the former dead-end roads to open up the site. The project is based on the creation of a large park of over 6 hectares, delivered in advance of the construction of new housing and roads.
