Nancy is often reduced to three images: the old town, the town of Charles III, laid out in the 17th C, and Stanislas' town.

The text, by a number of contributors, is a journey through time and space, with several close-ups of monuments and important personalities. It is an invitation to look at the details more closely, to get a better idea of the town's historical evolution. It is also intended to encourage readers to look to the future and imagine possible developments in this lively metropolis as the people of Nancy continue creating space in new and different ways.
