My favourtie part, not strictly speaking a unique event for the Nuit Blanche, was the exhibition at the Pavillon de l'Arsenal, the free museum dealing with Paris urbanism and urbanism in general. The current temporary exhibition, Housing, Substance of Our Cities, deals with the way housing has been designed since the beginning of the 20th Century, and discusses why it has often been treated with disdain by architects, seen as less 'noble' than the design of other individual buildings.
