The Challenge
The challenge is to reuse elements from the previous edition while offering an enriched and extended format on rue Saint-Denis. This new edition must therefore take advantage of the unique pedestrianization opportunities offered this year.
The Response
The 2023 edition offers expanded relaxation areas in front of the Saint-Sulpice library and at various other locations, with new pixel installations at the corner of Rue Émery and near the Ontario intersection.
New this year, the pixelated stands are equipped with ergonomic tablets, and the street markings are enhanced to highlight the highlights along the route on Saint-Denis Street. The entrances to Rue Saint-Denis are also decorated with green pixels, highlighting the reclamation of the street by pedestrians.
Discover our pedestrianization project for the year 2022.
