Place de Paris
Grace au maire de Paris, Mr Delanoe, la place de Paris va etre renovee.
Comme vous pouvez le voir d'apres les plans reproduits ci-dessous,
la place de Paris ressemblera beaucoup au Champ de Mars.
Il y manquera seulement l'edifice pointu a quatre pattes que l'on voit aussi sur le tableau de Delaunay.

French to help rehab historic Haifa plaza From Haaretz, June 1 2009
By Fadi Eyadat
The municipalities of Haifa and Paris are planning a joint reconstruction
program of Paris Square, which served as Haifa's central traffic terminus at
the start of the 20th century.
The program will be run jointly between municipal engineers from both cities,
and in cooperation with city-owned development company Yefe Nof.
Paris Square was constructed during the Ottoman period and called Carriage
Square for the abundance of passenger and cargo carriages parked there.
From the terminus, carriages would travel east to Nazareth and the Galilee,
north to Lebanon or south to Jaffa and Jerusalem.

The plan will upgrade the square's lighting system, and erect a fountain at the
site along with street furniture brought specially from Paris. A station for
Metronit, Haifa's new rapid transit bus service, will also be built at the
location.
Throughout the first half of the 20th century, the importance of Paris Square
continued to grow due to its central location in the lower city, for decades a
bustling commercial center. In 1959, with the construction of the Carmelit
subway, and a stop at the square itself, the plaza was renamed in honor of the
City of Lights as a sign of recognition to the French company which built the
rail system.
Most stores later left the square for the Hadar and Carmel areas. But after the
city's municipal complex recently moved to the site, it seems the Haifa is
taking renewed interest in restoring the plaza's former glory. According to
Haifa city engineer Ariel Waterman, the new plan will grant priority to public
transportation and pedestrian traffic in an effort to restore the square's
popularity.
"Cooperation between the Haifa and Paris municipalities in general, and with
France itself, has continued for many years," said Mayor Yona Yahav. "The
cooperative work between Paris and Haifa in restoring the square is
strengthening that tie and bringing a slice of Paris to Haifa," he said.
