It is around the urban court that 2 blocks are organized :

plan 04

- One in the East, Individual rental units are organized on a ground floor and one level. These homes are served by an open courtyard, forming a line from the Urban Court. They all have a West facing garden. The court is used to place the garages in tune with the gardens and provide necessary air space for residents without encroaching on the public domain.

- The other block offers a more complex composition consisting of a residential complex of three small buildings located in the alignment of the "Street of the Embellie" and staging itself to respect the topography of the site. This composition is used to identify each building entrance with large openings in the halls. This residence is organized on a ground floor and two floors with a basement containing all the parking spaces reserved for rental housing. All apartments have an extension on the outside

A public footpath opens in heart of the plot. It offers various courses to residents of the district in the continuity of those already existing on the site.
