La Cité项目由La Region Occitanie赞助，包括对Les Halles Latétoère历史遗迹的改造，以创建一个致力于合作和可持续创新的第三场所。La Cité容纳了一些致力于年轻创业的公共和私人服务，如Ad’Occ、At Home、Nubbō和Roselab。

Sponsored by La Region Occitanie, the project of La Cité consists of the renovation of the historic site of Les Halles Latétoère, in order to create a third-place dedicated to collaborative and sustainable innovation. La Cité hosts several public and private services devoted to young start-ups, such as Ad’Occ, At Home, Nubbō, and Roselab.

该项目位于图卢兹东南部的Montaudran郊区，紧邻沿Aéropostale历史保护跑道的铁路。该建筑本身已被注册为图卢兹航空工业历史遗产。

The project is located in the South-East of Toulouse, in the suburb of Montaudran, next to the railway running along the protected historic runway of the Aéropostale. The building itself is registered as the heritage of the aeronautical industrial history of Toulouse.

由工业先驱Pierre-Georges Latécoère在1917年至1918年间建造的Les Halles Latécoère见证了图卢兹航空业工业化的起源。自第一次世界大战以来，工厂位于这个45公顷的航空基地的北侧，沿着连接图卢兹和塞特的铁路分布。跑道和维修大楼位于南侧。Les Halles Latécoère的三个大厅是图卢兹最早的航空业生产地。最初是为铁路工业而建，然后迅速转为航空用途，该场地被用来生产军用飞机，并在第一次世界大战后用于生产商用和Aéropostale飞机。

Built between 1917 and 1918 by the industrial pioneer Pierre-Georges Latécoère, Les Halles Latécoère witnessed the origin of the industrialization of the aeronautic sector in Toulouse. Since World War I, the factory is located on the Northern side of this 45-ha aeronautic site, spread along the railway connecting Toulouse to Sète. The runway and maintenance buildings were located on the Southside. The three halls of Les Halles Latécoère housed the first aeronautic production in Toulouse. Originally built for the rail industry, then quickly shifted to aeronautic purposes, the site was used to produce military aircraft and, after World War I, commercial and Aéropostale planes.

尽管名声在外，Aéropostale却面临着财政困难，直到1933年被法国航空公司收购。因此，Aéropostale线路一直维持到第二次世界大战。1940年，Montaudran的场地被Pierre-Georges Latécoère出售，他从1939年开始与飞机制造商Louis Bréguet合作。1944年4月6日，该建筑和部分生产被盟军的轰炸摧毁，只剩下结构。Louis Bréguet重建并扩大了场地，以便生产轰炸机，然后一直到70年代。

Despite its fame, the Aéropostale was facing financial difficulties until it was bought by Air France in 1933. The Aéropostale line was thus maintained up to World War II. In 1940, the site of Montaudran is sold by Pierre-Georges Latécoère, who was associated with the planemaker Louis Bréguet since 1939. The building and a portion of the production were destroyed by Allied bombing on April 6, 1944, leaving only the structure. Louis Bréguet rebuilt and expanded the site so as to produce bomber aircraft and then till the seventies.

我们干预的范围包括Latécoère工厂的三个历史性大厅，以及几个仓库和雨棚，加上东侧的一个废弃区域。地面面积为19 628 m²。尽管经历了1944年的破坏和随后几年的改造，该遗址总体上保存完好，仍然呈现出显著的特征，如三个主要的大厅，自1997年7月21日起被指定为历史遗迹。鉴于它们的组成和宏伟的体积，它们构成了一个不朽的组合。

The perimeter of our intervention included the three historic halls of the Latécoère factory, along with several warehouses and canopies, plus a disused area at the Eastern side. The terrain has an area of 19 628 m². In spite of the destruction of 1944 and the remodeling in subsequent years, the site is generally well preserved and still presents remarkable features, such as the three main halls which have been designated as a historic monument since July 21, 1997. Given their composition and imposing volumes, they constitute a monumental ensemble.

此外，还有其他一些列的元素：乘客休息室建筑，目前布局的跑道，从场地的西北部跨越到管理大楼的东南部，称为Chateau Petit Espinet Raynal，也因其立面、屋顶和左翼而被分类。在更大的范围内，该场地位于一个正在开发的地区。场地的直接环境是由住宅区和物流及工业活动构成的。在它的南部边界，它到达了Rangueil的大学和科学综合体，聚集了超过35000名学生和教师。

There are also several other listed elements: the passengers’ lounge building, the runway in its current layout spanning from the North West of the site to the South East of the management building, called the Chateau Petit Espinet Raynal, also classified for its façade, roof, and left-wing. On a wider scale, the site is located in an area undergoing development. The direct environment of the site is constituted of residential areas and logistic and industrial activities. At its southern border, it reaches the university and scientific complex of Rangueil, gathering more than 35 000 students and teachers.

Cité项目主要集中在Les Halles Latécoère内部，由三个历史悠久的大厅组成，长120米，宽26米。每个大殿的土壤面积为3082平方米，这意味着三个大殿的总面积为9246平方米。

The project of La Cité is concentrated mostly inside of Les Halles Latécoère and is composed of the three historic halls which are 120 meters long and 26 meters wide. Each nave has a soil floor surface of 3082 m², meaning a total of 9246 m² for the three naves.
