Parc Zénith, Urban park in 3rd arrondissement of Lyon, France
The 8,731-square-meter Parc Zénith features large lawns with young trees, water-filled moats, and paths bordered by alternating bushes and resting areas.
The park stands on the former site of Rochet-Schneider, which manufactured Zénith carburetors from 1907 to 1971, supplying components for automobiles and aircraft.
A 600-square-meter mural decorates the Ecohlcité school wall, depicting the four seasons alongside Lyon landmarks including the Basilica of Fourvière and Opera.
Visitors can access the park through entrances on Avenue Lacassagne, Rue Rochaix, and Rue Rollet, with metro stations Monplaisir-Lumière and Grange Blanche nearby.
The park implemented France's first health impact assessment for an urban space, leading to specific plant selections and a three-year smoke-free trial period.
