Aug. 18, 1982 - This huge set of buildings in the form of chanterelles, glass roofs, barrel vaults, and large glass and steel umbrellas will soon see the completion of its last building, Rue Lescot. The hole of Les Halles will be completely finished in 1984. Next to La Fontaine des Innocents, behind the scaffolding, about a hundred housing accommodations, a hotel, and offices are being built. The new Lescot building will be able to hold public and cultural facilities. View of the Les Halles forum interior, behind the housing accommodations in construction.
