This complex of 593 public housing units was built at the entrance to the business district and was the first tower on the La Défense site.
Some elevations look like bands of alternative light and dark horizontal lines. These are the exterior access balconies that lead to the flats.
Ahead of its time, some of the elevations with exposed grid are composed of prefabricated visible-joint panels; the geometry ot these elements works a little like Mondrian painting.
Designed by Jean de Mailly, this building represents (with the Tour Aventis) the only structure actually built from the original La Défense master plan as conceived by the CNIT architects.
