The Ile-de-France region comprises eight departments, including Paris. The other departments in the region are Hauts-de-Seine, Seine-Saint-Denis, Val-de-Marne, Val-d'Oise Essonne, Yvelines and Seine-et-Marne (OSI 84). The Parisian suburbs make up the areas with the highest proportion of Muslims in France. According to a 1999 census, 1,611,008 immigrants live in the Ile-de-France region. Of this figure, 466,608 are from the Maghreb, 238,984 from Sub-Saharan Africa, and 50,125 from Turkey. These three groups of immigrant populations comprise nearly 50% of the immigration population in the Ile-de-France region. Accurate data on the large numbers of immigrant descendants and children are unavailable (OSI 84). The North-African population lives predominantly in the Seine-Saint-Denis department, Yvelines, and Val-de-Marne. Immigrants with Sub-Saharan origins mostly reside in the city center - in particular, the 18th, 19th, and 20th arrondissement and in three suburban cities: Bobigny in the Seine-Saint-Denis department, Vitry-sur-Seine in the Val de Marne department, and Cergy in the Val-d'Oise department (OSI 84-85). The arrival of the first waves of Muslim immigrants coincided with alterations of Parisian living conditions. While many arrived to shanty-towns on the city's limits, later housing often lacked running water, and sanitary facilities.

  • Bonjour Paris: Zoku Expands in France
    Amsterdam, 25 February 2020 BONJOUR PARIS: ZOKU EXPANDS IN FRANCE Zoku continues its international roll-out as it announces its first property in Paris. The award-winning Dutch hospitality brand Zoku announces its arrival in Paris, France, with the new Zoku scheduled to open in 2021. The new property will be located in the up-and-coming 19th Arrondissement, in the Claude Bernard-MacDonald-Rosa Parks area. Situated adjacent to the RER station Rosa Parks, the new Zoku is less than 10 minutes from Gare du Nord by metro. Zoku will be part of a mixed-use development called ‘Îlot Fertile’, combining hotel, residential and office facilities in a garden city block. Îlot Fertile is the largest-scale urban renewal project in the city, which is transforming the area from its industrial past into a comfortable, green and connected neighbourhood to live, work and play. Developed by Linkcity, a Bouygues Construction division, this sustainable project will result in a zero-carbon neighborhood - contributing to the urban sustainability goals, which the City of Paris aims to achieve by 2050. Zoku became part of the ‘Îlot Fertile’ development after winning the Reinventer Paris competition launched by the City of Paris. This was due to its innovative design, forward-thinking concept and commitment to social and environmental sustainability, as one of the few Certified B Corporations in the hospitality industry. The building will accommodate 129 Zoku Lofts, which are spread over seven floors. The much-loved Social Spaces will take an expansive new form on the first floor of the building, opening onto a stunning outdoor patio with extensive greenery and a Pétanque court.

  • The Demographic Impacts of the Sieges of Paris, 1870–1871
    Denis COGNEAU and Lionel KESZTENBAUM The Demographic Impacts of the Sieges of Paris, 1870–1871 Foreword What Victor Hugo memorably called ‘l’Année terrible’ [The Terrible Year or The Year of Horrors], from August 1870 to July 1871, was marked above all in the imagination of the Western world by the two dramatic sieges of Paris. The first was by the German army, from September 1870 to January 1871, to force the surrender of the French Government of National Defence, and then by the French army during April and May 1871, to crush the popular insurrection known as the Paris Commune. Recent history had witnessed other sieges, a feature of conventional war throughout the ages. Only a few years before, there had been the siege of Vicksburg (1863), during the American Civil War; the siege of Delhi (1857), during the Indian Mutiny; and the siege of Sebastopol (1854–1855), during the Crimean War. Some of Europe’s historic cities had suffered sieges; for example, Venice and Rome in the aftermath of the 1848 revolutions, and Warsaw in 1831. The ‘Année terrible’ also saw major sieges of Strasbourg and Belfort. Nevertheless, the two sieges of Paris were traumatic and sensational as no others had been. First, because it was Paris: one of Europe’s most populous cities, its leading cultural centre, the main focus of international tourism, and the historic capital of one of its most powerful states. To many observers, it was scandalous that such a city should be the target of military attack, which threatened cultural treasures of world significance as well as the lives of a large civilian population.

  • Travel to France for Persons with Restricted Mobility
    Travel to Paris for People with Restricted Mobility Last update: September 15, 2018 Paris is a wonderful city, full of history, culture, art, architecture, and amazing cuisine. It’s easy to understand why this cradle of French civilization has been the most visited city in the world. The city of Paris is working hard to understand the needs of all people living in and visiting the city and to improve universal access. Navigating the ancient streets, monuments and subway system of Paris can present certain challenges to persons with restricted mobility, but with a little planning and preparation, your visit to this beautiful city will be the thrill of a lifetime. Where to stay Hotels in Paris are much like the rest of the city’s buildings. They can be old, with much smaller rooms than we are used to in the USA, and frequently don’t have elevators large enough to accommodate a wheelchair, if there even are any. But, the more modern hotels can be very welcoming to wheelchair users. The best place to find information on hotels that can offer what you need is through the Paris Convention and Visitors Bureau page on accessible hotels. What to do The following list includes some, but not all, of Paris’s wheelchair-accessible attractions. Outside Parks and Gardens Most of Paris’s parks, gardens, and promenades are accessible, including the most famous, the Jardin du Luxembourg. The following parks are some of the most trustworthy in terms of accessibility. Parc de la Villette A new park in Paris’s up-and-coming 19th arrondissement, Parc de la Villette was designed in order that anyone can access it, including persons with physical, visual, and aural disabilities.

  • Tfl Roads Review
    Summary Roads International Case Studies September 2012 roads − international case studies 1 Introduction Transport for London is currently undertaking a major strategic review of London’s road network which aims to identify long-term solutions to improve the capital’s roads and tackle some of London’s most congested junctions. The purpose of this report is to gather examples of road strategy practice that can inform the development of London’s road strategy. The examples of road strategy practice have been chosen to illustrate how other cities have addressed challenges faced by London’s road network such as: congestion; conflict between users along links; conflicts between movement and place activities; and how they have made air quality, physical accessibility, noise and public realm improvements. Transport for London’s review of London’s road network covers the entire Greater London area and is therefore considering a wide range of road issues in both inner London and the outer London town centres. One area of interest is where cities have been able to obtain more space – space for increased highway capacity or urban space that can be used for development, green places or alternative links for walking and cycling. This report identifies a sample of 37 projects where cities have delivered projects with highway and urban realm benefits and sought to use innovation in their design and delivery. In the examples gathered we have provided a range of projects which exhibit some of the characteristics above, and where possible, quantified the benefits delivered. The examples are not intended to be representative of all possible options and more extensive reviews of international practice (including broader understanding of city/transport strategy context) could be undertaken if felt worthwhile.
