This is the best summary I could come up with:
The restoration project is currently on track to meet the reopening deadline of 8 December 2024 set by president Emmanuel Macron just after the blaze.
The cathedral’s iconic centrepiece, which collapsed in the fire, will reappear above the monument this year, in a powerful signal of its revival.
“The return of the spire in Paris’ sky will in my opinion be the symbol that we are winning the battle of Notre Dame," said General Georgelin.
“We have a lot of different works to achieve: the framework, the painting, the stones, the vault, the organ, the stained glasses and so on,” Georgelin explained.
An exhibition called ‘Notre-Dame de Paris: at the heart of the construction site’ opened earlier this year, paying tribute to hundreds of artisans working on the reconstruction.
It highlights ongoing operations to restore the cathedral, showcases the expertise and skills of artisan workers and features some works of art rescued from the fire.
