The Tour Défense 2000 is one of the tallest residential buildings in France.
The tower is situated in the La Défense section of Puteaux, a suburb of Paris.
Its success as a residence was not immediate: two years into its opening only a quarter of its apartments had been sold.
In comparison to the other buildings of La Défense, Tour Défense 2000 is relatively isolated, and thus benefits from a beautiful panoramic view.
In total, there are 370 apartments occupying 47 floors, and the building is capable of housing about 700 people.
