Ancien immeuble de bureaux des Usines Puratos

The former office building of the Puratos works, which specialised in products for bakers, built in 1945 in the Art Deco style by the architect Pierre M. Porto on a plot the company had acquired in 1941; the set-back top floor, planned from the outset, was only added in 1961. The brick façade, with emphasised horizontal joints and blue-stone details, opens on the right onto a large triangular porch beneath a three-storey oriel of asymmetrical triangular plan. On the left, a tall glazed bay lights the stairwell, with a grille incorporating the letter "P" and, above it, a round sign that originally bore the monogram "PP". The building is recorded in the architectural heritage inventory.
