Viaduc des Arts

The Viaduc des Arts is a structure in Paris, France, located beneath the Promenade Plantée, an elevated park built on a former railway line. The Viaduc des Arts features former railway arches that have been converted into commercial spaces. These spaces house various establishments, including shops, galleries, art studios, furniture showrooms, cafes, and restaurants.1

The Promenade Plantée, completed in 1994, was the world's first elevated park and the first green space constructed on a viaduct. It spans approximately 4.5 kilometers (3 miles) and inspired similar projects in other cities, such as New York City's High Line. The Viaduc des Arts itself was renovated and completed in 2000.1
