1819réf. 1002411819. Paris de l'Imprimerie de Mme Ve Courcier rue du Jardinet no. 12 1819. 4pp. Unbound as issued. On 29 floréal an X 19 mai 1802 Napoleon Bonaparte 'Premier Consul' at that time passed a law to have the Canal Saint- Martin constructed together with the Canal Saint-Denis and the Canal de l'Ourcq. The project of the engineer Pierre Simon Girard 1765-1836 was chosen to resolve the problems of drinking water navigation in Paris. In 1790 he had won a price of the Academy for a work on the construction of canals and in 1798 he published the first work on the resistance of materials. By creating these canals there was the additional that a shortcut of the Seine was created. So ships could avoid the difficult center of Paris and ports could be built. Building of the canal Saint-Martin started in 1805 at both ends but the canal was only finished in 1825. Numerous difficulties related to constructing a canal in such an urban area had to be surmounted. The present document signed by Girard objects to a change that has been made in the initial project which wants to let the canal pass underneath the Hospital Saint-Louis. The author explains all his objections in detail. Important document for the history of the urbanisation of Paris. unknown
