Saifi Village

Saifi Village is an upscale residential neighborhood in Beirut, Lebanon. Saifi Village is located at the southeastern periphery of Centre Ville. The neighborhood was completely destroyed during the Lebanese Civil War. However, private company Solidere has rebuilt the neighborhood in a vernacular style that seeks to be somehow reminiscent of French colonial buildings. It was initially planned by French architect François Spoerry, and includes buildings by prominent Lebanese architects such as Nabil Gholam.
