SAINT DIE
In the same view as the previous photo, the crowd reenters the street after the artillery passes. After the war, the right side of the Meurthe was completely razed and most people lived outside the town in wood cabins for decades. A plan calling for a large plaza with factories and other buildings in the heart of the city, was rejected in 1947, and only one private factory was built. The great street called Rue Thiers was finally rebuilt at the end of 1954.
