Quick Summary

The Front de Seine is a modern business district located in the southwest corner of Paris, France, along the Seine River. It was developed in the late 1960s as part of an effort to create new urban centers and limit the expansion of office buildings westward. This area, previously occupied by factories and substandard housing, was transformed into a district featuring high-rise buildings for both offices and apartments. The Front de Seine is situated on the Left Bank of the Seine, between the Eiffel Tower and the southern city limits.1
