“The RER A? It’s a lifesaver!” you hear a Parisian woman say, as she rushes towards the gate. Standing at the station, you are surrounded by the bustling energy of those making their way in and out of the city. This is Noisiel, a town not far from the center of Paris, and its station is a prime example of how the suburbs have become integrated with the city itself. The station itself is a fairly modern, functional structure with a small courtyard, a sign of how the area has been transformed from the rural setting of the past. The station connects Noisiel directly to the heart of Paris and is a gateway to its many attractions. It is a testament to a dynamic past and a vibrant future.
