The Croix de Pierre is now embedded in the wall of a house at the corner of rue Lafage.

Thanks to the many activities, events, and festivities organized by its inhabitants, it is a lively and very animated district: there are many small shops useful for daily life, and a market is held there twice a week.

Geographically, it is also well located: a stone’s throw from the banks of the Garonne, the Ernest Wallon Stadium, the art deco Nakache swimming pool, designed by the architect Jean Montariol, as well as many other cultural venues such as the Théâtre de la Digue. A large public transportation network links it to the city center: streetcar, bus, VélÔ Toulouse.

Croix de Pierre is a neighborhood in constant evolution, where many urban projects are expected in the coming years. It is therefore a very popular neighborhood for families, quiet and dynamic, where life is good.

The heights of the district are occupied by large villas built between the two wars.

The neighborhood is built around the green lung that is the park of the college of Caousou, and many other school groups complete the educational offer.

Life is lively in the neighborhood, with numerous facilities such as the Alex Jany swimming pool and skating rink, cultural centers, the Argoulets leisure center and libraries.

Located between Boulevard Lascrosses and Boulevard de la Marquette, it concentrates more than 200,000 m² of offices, hotels and housing.

It is separated in two by the public garden of Compans-Caffarelli containing a Japanese garden registered as a remarkable garden of France.

Formerly a market garden, its proximity to the Matabiau train station has made it an obvious neighborhood for railway workers.

The suburb offers all the advantages of the hyper-center without its disadvantages: quietness and charm still accessible, representation of a varied social fabric, an efficient transportation network.

There are still many typical old railwaymen’s houses with small gardens in extension of the main building. For shopping enthusiasts of all kinds, Faubourg Bonnefoy is a neighborhood that mixes a village feel with modernity, with many shops, boutiques, a cultural center and a large supermarket.
