Le Méridien stands on Ruelle Herculis, in Fontvieille. It was completed in 2015 to designs by Alexandre Giraldi, developed by J.B. Pastor & Fils. It has 15 levels, is contemporary in style and holds apartments and offices. Offices fill its lower floors, with homes above; on Avenue de Fontvieille it shows only eleven levels, so steep is the ground.
