Un très grand bravo à Kathryn Gustafson qui remporte le concours Grand Site Tour Eiffel avec le superbe projet OnE1 ! D’ici 2024, nous allons offrir un nouveau parc de plus de 50 hectares aux Parisiennes et aux Parisiens. pic.twitter.com/CqyM9JHgve

Repenser ce site était une évidence : @LaTourEiffel c’est le symbole de Paris mais aussi de la France. 7 millions de visiteurs la gravissent chaque année et 20 millions de personnes viennent l'admirer sans y monter. Nous nous devions de penser l'avenir de cet espace. pic.twitter.com/vhLomf5vnG
