The developments of the European economy have required Strasbourg to maintain its transit function, modernize the machines in its warehouses, increase the surface of its roads, and open new docks. These are placed south of the city at the mouth of the Grand Canal d'Alsace. From the top of the large silo, which was built a few years ago, one can see the powerful Central Thermonique N°2, recently built by Electricity of France

Mulhouse, the dynamic city in South Alsace and the center of gravity of the Rhine industry, was able to get rid of some neighborhoods with less character and innovate them. Europe Square, of recent construction in the center, is a sort of forum with surrounding shops and arcades, the ground is strewn with the tiles featuring the arms of the European capitals.
