Street Scene, Pedestrian, Man Walking at "Les Halles", "Le Forum des Halles""Shopping Center", Outside, Mirrored Wall. "The setting of one of Emile Zola's novels, Les Halles was a 12th century marketplace that was razed when the food sellers moved to Rungis in the 1970s, leaving something of a black hole in the heart of the capital. Then-mayor Jacques Chirac, who went on to become the French president, inaugurated the current Forum des Halles, an austere steel-and-glass structure in 1981 and it has since earned the dubious honour of being one of Paris' least successful renovation projects." (France 24) (Credit Architect: Cllaude Vasconi)
