Take a walk on the new passerelle Müller !
The Müller passerelle (footbridge) has been recently restored and reopened
on June 12, this year.
It connects Ivry's center to Ivry's harbour, spanning the underlying railways and
linking together the rue Ledru Rollin with the rue Jules Vanzuppe, right in the artists-
workshops' area.


> To undertake this project, the Ivry Municipal Authority, decided to enlist
the aid of experts : the DVVD, an architectural and engineering consultant,
Baudin Châteauneuf for the metal framework and the CSTB.
> Read the full article edited on the CSTB's site, focusing on the more interesting
details of this structure.







Here below, the old passerelle and the new one in its refection phase...


... as now, in September 2008.

SLIDESHOWS :
- dismantling the old footbridge and installing the new one.

A yellow Beatle on Arte, yesteray night...
... I loved !

Arte broadcasted a 2008 Yishai Orian's
movie in which the author is facing the
painful selling of his 40 years old yellow
rusty Volkswagen Beatle...
When finally he has the better idea to have
it completely refurbished for cheap in
Jordan... well, that is the best part of the
movie.
Have a look at the trailer...
