Twitter Thread: Revealing A Forgotten Parisian Subway Station

Tim Mc Erney took to Twitter to explain the intriguing remains of an old Paris metro station, relatively untouched by time. It looks like whoever was in charge of the remodel did a sort of bath fitters-style overlay job rather than take anything down, so what we're left with is the fine corporate spam of the 60s. Maybe in 60 years people will be excited to see a bus stop covered in ads for Peletons and coding night school.
