Park Hill is a post-war housing estate in Sheffield developed in the late 1950s/early 1960s. The estate is located on a steep slope adjacent to Sheffield Town Centre and was designed by two architects from the Sheffield City Council, inspired by Unite D’habitation, a modernist residential utopia located in Marseilles and designed by Le Corbusier.
