Refusons la tour Triangle à la Porte de Versailles

#1: -  

 Why should an American architect need to remind the French that this is a crazy project, one that will be regretted for years to come should it ever be built.....let the architects, Swiss I think, like that vandal Corbu, make their messes in places like London, where the city is lost, and they can not do much more harm.....KEEP THEM OUT OF PARIS, should this project be built, you will be very sorry when you wake up in the morning, ....... like a bad night in a bar!! 

Paris is a CLASSICAL CITY and should remain so.....not a museum but a living example of the beauty and variety of classical architecture that can adapt to changing needs and not the whims of “ready to wear” fashion.

Believe me, in a few short years,  Herzog and de Meuron will not even be a foot note in the history of architecture , yet Paris will remain………..

Wake up Paris………!!

 John Blatteau, architect.
