Halle Tony Garnier
Builted between 1909 and 1914 as an outline for the larger city. Inaugurated for the 1914 Universal Exhibition as a project for an "industrial city". This days, it is used for concerts and exhibitions but not so long ago it was still Lyon's meat market. Also used temporarily as an arsenal during World War I. Tony Garnier was inspired by 19th century glass and steel architecture. Garnier was more of a theorist than an architect as his buildings included all the functions of a slaughterhouse.
