@maique@social.lol I find the Pantin-to-Paris / Brooklyn-to-NewYork comparison to be fairly accurate in the sense that it's a more modern, less "timeless" vision of the city, but still very much connected by the canal and the metro. Here's an idea of where it is, relative to the rest of the city

Greater Paris is born, reconfiguring the city. (…) The east (…) [side] has risen, turning the banlieue from Pantin to Romainville into cool, desirable areas. (…) The action is no longer on the Seine River — it is on a 200-year-old canal, the Ourcq.
