History

edit

L'Haÿ-les-Roses station serves a densely populated area currently undergoing revitalization. The station is expected to act as a catalyst for a proposed urban renewal program for the area.

Construction of the station commenced in March 2018 under the leadership of a consortium led by Razel-Bec, a subsidiary of the Fayat Group.[2] Franklin Azzi Architecture designed the station, while Studio Nonotak (Noemi Schipfer and Takami Nakamoto) contributed a complementary artistic work.[3]

Initially named the Chevilly - Trois Communes project, the station's final name was chosen through a public consultation held from 20 June to 4 July 2022.[4][5] Voters selected L'Haÿ-les-Roses, which was officially announced on 27 July 2022, other proposed names were Lallier-Bicêtre and Paul Hochart.[6]
