ABSTRACT
The self-contained “city” that the architect envisioned for Marseilles relinquished tradition for the convenience of the residents. The garden was on the roof, easily accessible to the nursery school and swimming pool; the “streets” were placed on floors 2, 5, 7, 8, 10, 13, and 16; and shops were placed on parts of the seventh and eighth floors instead of being intertwined with the commercial life of the city outside.
