Until the 18th century, it was a small city built around its Phoenician port. In the 19th century, its walls were destroyed and it began expanding east to west. In the 20th century under French Mandate rule, it witnessed great expansion, becoming 3 times larger than in 1875 and 100 times larger than the original fortified city. The document also provides information on the location, climate, roads, buildings and typological evolution of Beirut as well as proposals to improve traffic and transportation in the city.
