Alexandre III sur fond de Tour Eiffel
Pont Alexandre-III
En 1824, Navier commença la réalisation d'un pont suspendu à cet
emplacement. Des complications techniques obligèrent à le détruire
avant son achèvement.
Lors de la décision d’organiser une Exposition Universelle en 1900, il
fut décidé de détruire le Palais de l’Industrie pour le remplacer par
deux palais, de part et d'autre d'une voie qui prolongerait la place
des Invalides.
Le cahier des charges prévoyait qu'il soit suffisamment plat pour
qu'on puisse voir entièrement les Invalides depuis les Champs-Élysées.
Il ne devait pas entraver la navigation et avoir un tirant d'air au
moins égal à celui des ponts les plus modernes. Sa largeur devait être
proportionnée à celle de l’avenue qu’il prolongeait : d'abord
envisagée à 50 m, elle fut arrêtée à 40 m pour ne pas trop perturber
la navigation. Il devait être symétrique et décoratif (d'où une
largeur imposée des quais de 22,50 m).

In 1824, Navier began the realization of a suspension bridge in this
place. Technical complications obliged to destroy it before its
completion.
During the decision to organize a World Fair in 1900, it was decided
to erase the Palace of the Industry to replace it by two palaces, on
both sides of a way which would prolong the place of the Disabled
persons.
The specifications planned that it is enough flat so that we can see
completely the Disabled persons since Champs-Elysées. He did not have
to hinder the navigation and have a headroom at least equal to that of
the most modern bridges. Its width must be proportionned in that of
the avenue that it prolonged: at first envisaged in 50 m, it was
stopped in 40 m not to perturb too much the navigation. He was to be
symmetric and ornamental (where from a compulsory width of the quays
of 22,50 m).
