Esplanade de La Défense is a station on Paris Métro Line 1 on the outskirts of La Défense on the border of Courbevoie and Puteaux. It has a central platform because of its constrained site between the openings of the two tubes of the A14 autoroute (which passes under La Défense in tunnel). HistoryThe station was opened on 1 April 1992 as part of the western extension of the line from Pont de Neuilly to La Défense. TourismStatues have been erected in the station's entrance and corridors. The end of the platform toward Paris is in the open air and it is possible to see the coach station at Pont de Neuilly.
