Great job.

So for the people who drive, where do they park? I guess they all must park underneath it all. Any idea how expensive the parking is in there? or is not available to the public, but only people who work there?

La Defense is inner suburbs at 4 km of the Arc de Triomphe. la Defense is served by the metro line 1, the RER (subway express) line A, the suburban trains, and the light rail line 2 actually 90% of la Defense employee take public transportation.
La Defense is not only a business district it has also a big shopping center, you will see it in the second part.

La Defense has the biggest underground park complex in the world
For the parking it is 2.5 €/hour.

I adore La Défense

great pictures, and some cool new skyscrapers too, although La Defense is not really a part of Paris I care for. Rather like Canary Wharf, it's a sort of globalised business 'any-place' and has only a little of what makes Paris so special (imho)!
