Unité d'Habitation de Marseille

The Unité d'Habitation de Marseille, also known as Cité Radieuse, is a huge block of collective housing built in raw concrete, designed by Le Corbusier and constructed between 1947 and 1952. The building stands on pilotis, freeing up the ground floor for green areas, a tennis court and children's play areas. Inside, a shopping street on the seventh and eighth floors houses shops and leisure facilities, while the rooftop terrace offers sports and recreation spaces. Visitors can walk the open ground floor, look at the brise-soleil façade and see the duplex-type flat with its double-height living room. The building is a landmark of modern architecture and the first of the five Unités d'Habitation built by Le Corbusier.
