Flooded Paris

Good old Paris in January 1910 after months of rainfall and a very snowy winter leaving the city heavily flooded . You can see the old art-nouveau style Samaritaine with its towers behind the first row of houses fronting the Seine and Pont Neuf.

Check out this website created by the Mairie de Paris for the occasion.

    I am Cedric, discoverer of things that would go unnoticed in the streets of Paris, historic haven of fashionistas and city of lights ('lights' as in 'enlightenment', not street lights).
    But seriously: I'm an expat from Luxembourg (the country, not the garden), living in the center of Paris (hence 'Paris 2nd arrondissement'), and currenlty studying architectural history...
