The town centre of Saint-Quentin sits on the high ground overlooking the Somme, between the basilica to the north and the station to the south. It is the historic core of the town, that of the collegiate church and the textile trade, organised around the main square and the rue d'Isle, the principal shopping street.
Close to 80 % destroyed during the First World War, it was rebuilt in the 1920s. Its present appearance dates from that period: more than three thousand Art Deco facades, a town hall whose flamboyant Gothic front of 1509 was preserved with the building rebuilt behind it by Louis Guindez in 1925 and 1926, and a restored basilica. The musée Antoine-Lécuyer, the parc des Champs-Élysées and the Pierre-Ratte sports hall, on the eastern edge, complete the picture.
On the market, the town centre concentrates most of the activity: about 86 single-lot apartment sales a year, more than two thirds of those in the whole town. The average stands at around 1 204 €/m², in line with the town figure, with a wide spread: a quarter of sales take place below 950 €/m² and a quarter above 1 382 €/m², depending on condition and floor.
