The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Une des quatre piscines réalisées par l'architecte-ingénieur Lucien Pollet entre 1929 et 1934. L'établissement de la rue Pailleron (1934) fait partie du plan d'aménagement en piscines des quartiers ouvriers de la capitale. Ossature en béton armé, construction de brique marquée par un avant-corps soigné, bassin central entouré de deux étages de cabines (comme la piscine Pontoise). Son insertion dans le paysage urbain est une réussite : un vaste dégagement autour de la piscine met en valeur son architecture simple et fonctionnelle.

History
One of four swimming pools built by the architect-engineer Lucien Pollet between 1929 and 1934. The establishment on the Rue Pailleron (1934) is part of a plan for development of swimming pools in the working-class districts of the capital. Reinforced concrete framework, brick construction marked by a carefully designed projecting section, central basin surrounded by two storeys of changing rooms (like the Piscine Pontoise). Its integration into the urban landscape is a success: a vast open space around the swimming pool enhances its simple and functional architecture.
