Rue Pierre de Ronsard, Montigny-Le-Bretonneux, Paris

Have a look at this one on google maps here. As you can see, it is rectangular, with a circle of trees and bushes with a low (two-stone-heigh) stone wall. Like the previous reserve, there is no formal seating, though it's possible to sit on the wall, and people apparently do it (indeed, a woman was doing it when I got there). The reserve has four entranceways and a rubbish bin.

During the 20 minutes I was there, on a Friday afternoon (very nice weather, as you can see) the reserve was used by one woman who was sitting on the wall when I came in; one dog walker who wandered through the space for a very long time with a small dog playing with the chestnuts; two solitary people; a couple (both pedestrians passing through), a 40something man with a small child, and two cyclists in lycra.






I made a time lapse film of this reserve but it will have to wait until I get somewhere with more resilient wifi.
