With this series, we’re examining the Olympics’ impact on Paris and its inhabitants, connecting them to questions we’ve explored in our latest Paris issue. As road infrastructure has been reorganized to accommodate traffic for the games, we draw parallels with the Périphérique, a vision of speed that was never fully realized, and peek behind the curtain to understand what it takes to manage and maintain Europe’s most used road.

Read about the Périphérique as an infrastructure of noise and time in curating editor Anabelle Lacroix’s piece “Breaking the Continuum,” and ’s full interview of Stéphane Lagrange, the head of the unit responsible for the Périphérique, in our Paris issue.

Read about the struggle for housing and home in Rubble of Memories, a photography essay by , and reflections on the mechanism of gentrification in Archipelago: A Case for Care with .chabani, in our Paris issue.
