Paris: "A City of Ideas"
Paris is a city built on ideas. These ideas coalesce into narratives, myths and stories that form a neural network of urban life. "A City of Ideas" explores these Ideas toward an understanding of how Paris developed as a modern city. This podcast series was created and narrated by Roger Mummert (rogermum@aol.com).

Reimagining a Green Notre Dame
•
Roger Mummert
The area surrounding Notre Dame Cathedral is being reimagined, as part of the vast greening of Paris. In a few years, the 12 million people who visit the cathedral annually will encounter a surrounding space that is far greener, cooler and more amenable to social interactions.
It may also be more Parisian.
See how the landscape architects of Bureau Bas Smets plan to bring Parisians back to the Ile de la Cité to gather in an inviting and refreshing place in the historic middle of a vast city.
