  • They say rebuild Notre Dame as it was.
    8) 8) 8)

     On Monday evening, the French Senate approved the government's Notre-Dame restoration bill - but added a clause that it must be restored to the state it was before the blaze, striking a blow to the government which had launched an international architecture competition to debate ideas on the restoration.
     
    The subject of the rebuilding of the cathedral - which was left badly damaged after fire tore through the roof and destroyed the spire on April 15 - has become a fraught battleground between traditionalists who want an exact restoration and others who favour a more imaginative take.
     
    Some of the suggestions have included a rooftop garden, an 'endless spire' of light and a swimming pool on top of the building.
