Apparently they offered the 3d renderings they took over a 14 month period too, the spire is the only thing that's really different, as they used an older version in the game, pretty cool stuff. Unlike some, that the cynic in me says are doing it so that their names become attached to the restoration, this is a genuine here you go, hope this helps offer.

Yeah we are a cynical bunch but get a feeling a lot of the french companies are doing it for the right reasons.

Macron only wants it built in 5 years because Paris has the Olympic Games in 2024.

If there is one good thing to come out of this tragedy and that is no one was killed...we should be thankful for that

They are now saying that the most likely cause is an electrical short circuit.

I assume you're referring to LVMH Group (Luis Vuitton Moet Hennessy) who donated something like 200 Million Euros?

Have a guess how much they spent on advertising/Sponsorships/Promotions last year...




5.5 Billion Euros.

well if they spent that much on advertising do they really need to spend another 200 million on notre dame

And to make it worse, the historic train station Gare de Lyon in Paris is on fire.

It may be deliberate.

How does it look in 2022?
