American Vintage invites you to discover the many facets of the Cité Radieuse, which is an ever-changing place of education, healthcare, leisure and culture for Marseille residents and visitors.Le Corbusier redefined the ordinary function of housing by designing an urban area that is different to traditional high-rise towers or other homes.There is a pre-school, hotel, theatre, shops, offices, a gym, and even an accessible rooftop terrace split into various zones (culture and leisure).
