The Ourcq Canal, the City of Paris' designated supplier of unfiltered water and for a long time a resource for industrial development, remains a significant natural feature in the urban landscape.

This navigable canal at the heart of the vast Seine-Saint-Denis territories where enormous changes are taking place, is becoming a major urban public space with both a  landscape and  a functional role in the future, freight transportation,  leisure activities, water resource…

How, on what terms, on what time-scale ?
