It is a spot that some Lyonnais know … nestled in the heart of the garden of curiosities, an old basketball court would need a little facelift. That’s good, it’s the specialty of Valentin Turgot.
Located below the Garden of Curiosities (Lyon 5th), the land in question already has everything to please. Surrounded by greenery, quiet … but a little paint would not hurt him. Not to mention the nets, completely worn.
Exchanges with the city of Lyon
“Many Lyonnais have a memory with this land“, He says. Which undoubtedly explains the success of his last challenge: to retype the ground and give it a new breath.
Each of his videos, posted on Instagram, receives a nice welcome. “”I try to have the project steps follow a little. I did not expect to receive so many supports, including outside Lyon!“
The buzz has not escaped the city of Lyon either, which seems favorable to the project … that it will be necessary to finance! The exchanges continue. Friday, an appointment is made to go see on site what can be done.
In terms of, the objective is also to involve all those who want to invest in the renovation of the field.
In the meantime, you can follow the advances in the project on the Valentin Instagram account. And long life in basketball!
