The 4th arrondissement, around Les Chartreux, Les Cinq-Avenues and Les Chutes-Lavie, was urbanised in the 19th century as a residential area on the hills close to the centre. The Palais Longchamp, completed in 1869 to mark the arrival of water from the Durance, is its great monument.
The district has kept a bourgeois stock and investment buildings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, along tree-lined avenues. The presence of schools, faculties and public facilities has long anchored a middle-class, family population.
Today the 4th is a residential arrondissement prized for its in-between position: close to the centre, better preserved than the neighbouring working-class districts, without reaching the prices of the southern seafront. Les Cinq-Avenues and Les Chartreux are among its most sought-after areas.
The 4th attracts families and middle-class buyers looking for a residential district close to the centre, with schools and transport.
