avenue Colonel-Fabien ; allée Jean-Catelas, Saint-Denis, France

Cité Colonel-Fabien, developed in phases from 1947 to 1967, represents André Lurçat's second project in Saint-Denis, where he served as chief architect and urban planner. Collaborating with architects Albert Michaut and Marc and Léo Solotareff, he designed this housing complex as a "neighborhood unit," drawing inspiration from suburban garden cities like Butte Rouge in Châtenay-Malabry. The project integrates public amenities and commercial spaces in close proximity to both collective and individual housing, all situated within green spaces, promoting a sustainable and community-oriented living environment.
