Hôtel de préfecture et du département de Seine-Saint-Denis

The prefecture building features a distinctive asymmetrical pyramid design, measuring 70 meters at the base and rising to 34 meters in height.

Construction began in August 1968 following the creation of Seine-Saint-Denis department, with architects Michel Folliasson and Jacques Binoux leading the project until 1971.

The building incorporates modern materials like basalt concrete panels and continuous window strips, representing the architectural styles of the late 1960s.

The ground floor includes a spacious reception hall that guides visitors to various administrative services through multiple elevators and corridors.

The upper levels contain the prefect's official residence, while the first floor houses public reception rooms and administrative offices.
