Le Corbusier's Unité d'Habitation (1952) in Marseille is one of the most influential buildings of the 20th century. This Brutalist housing block — a vertical city for 1,600 residents with internal streets, shops, and a rooftop terrace — established the template for social housing worldwide and remains a pilgrimage site for architects.
