Some raw modernism recently developed over the "Docks Libres", which is around the same area as the couple of high-rises recently built over the city on the seaside.

Pictures are by Carta AssociƩs, an architecture firm quite active over Marseille.





























Of course it will shock or make laugh those still hating modernism, but this is actually more subtle and contemporary than old brutalism.
I can appreciate the consistency of the whole thing. It will age well if they keep it clean and free from any ghettoization.
