Quai Marcel-Dassault, Riverfront promenade in Suresnes and Saint-Cloud, France.
Quai Marcel-Dassault runs along the Seine and connects Suresnes and Saint-Cloud through a paved walkway and roadway. The waterfront offers views of the river and is lined with buildings that reflect both its industrial past and modern changes.
During World War I, the Blériot aircraft factory on this site produced airplanes on a large scale. The location on the Seine enabled efficient transport and made it an important hub for French aviation manufacturing.
The promenade is named after Marcel Dassault, a French engineer who built his aviation business in this area. Today, the riverfront reflects how industrial sites can transform into vibrant public spaces for residents and visitors.
The promenade has several access points to public transportation, including Val d'Or and Suresnes-Longchamp train stations. The walkway is level and paved, making it easy to stroll along the riverbank.
SKEMA Business School now occupies the former Blériot aircraft factory site. This transformation shows how the location evolved from aircraft manufacturing to education and research.
