The Paris metropolis is a reality in territorialized practices among young metropolitans living in the “suburbs,” at a time when the powers that be are still fighting over how to mark out its frontiers, driven by intentions of sovereignty. Analyzing the urban project to renovate the Halles reveals a significant gap between the new municipal management, of which bobos of the center are part and, on the other hand, the multiple appropriations of the territory by whole sets of young people from the suburbs, who by so doing, favor the development of a new common territory.
