The western part of the arrondissement is more residential and middle-class than the east, with the Ternes and Monceau neighbourhoods. It is characterised by varied architecture ranging from Haussmann-style buildings to contemporary blocks. Well-served by public transport, it combines Parisian traditions with modernity. The western part of the arrondissement offers two long walks and around twenty green spaces, including picturesque gardens such as the Square Saint-Odile and the undulating Jardin Claire Motte.
