Puteaux
Framed by futuristic high-rises, Puteaux is a busy area known for the Grande Arche, the colossal centerpiece of the La Défense business district. Oversize artworks dot Parvis de la Défense, a vast esplanade linking the Quatre-Temps and CNIT shopping malls. Restaurants line cobbled streets around 16th-century Notre-Dame de Pitié church, while Île de Puteaux is an island in the Seine with a park and sports facilities.
