Public gardens, a miracle or a scam? In the city, the park is one of the only places where you can exist without paying. But who decides where trees are planted and where concrete is poured? And why do working-class neighborhoods burn in 40-degree heat while the wealthy neighborhoods enjoy their century-old trees?
In this first episode of Béton Arable, we delve into the political and social history of green spaces: From royal gardens reserved for the rich...
To Baron Haussmann who created parks by driving out the working classes... Until today, where green spaces have become an issue of gentrification and social struggle.
