"LES HALLES," ABOVE GROUND AND BELOW IT

THE MARKET'S SPACE IS NOW A PARK OVER AN UNDERGROUND MALL, OVER ONE OF EUROPE'S MAIN MÉTRO HUBS

(CHÂTELET-LES HALLES)

The absence of building foundations under the cemetery and market facilitated its construction and the corridor between the Châtelet and Les Halles stations follows the path between prison and cemetery...

As you trudge along the interminable passages

remember that you follow a trade route

and have a thought for the tired, patient mules.
