This gigantic project was led by 6 architects. Simultaneously, a garden was realized by the landscape architect René Pechère. The purpose was to fit out a green space on a big paving stone above the underground parking lot. The garden became a place of relaxation for the workers and an entertaining space for the local residents. The works were finished in 1977. The garden is still a technical wonder, with its beautiful green spaces that offer a breath of fresh air to the district.
