A few months back Dwell did a little city-piece on Bordeaux, if I recall correctly. When I went, I found it somewhat dull but then looking through that Dwell piece realized what I had missed. If you check out their archives you will probably find it -- good little piece.
Must see architecture in Bordeaux?
I am going to visit Bordeaux and know very little about the city. Any must see buildings, places, or events?
the botanical gardens by Catherine Mosbach are quite nice
make sure to drink plenty of wine!

If you want something very "trendy", check out the Hotel Seeko'o by King Kong...
Manta I wish I was bored in Bordeaux dashing around in a cv2!
Oh yeah! I forgot about the courthouse!! Awesome, wish I had seen it.
you mean a 2cv, vado? :) when I was there I was dashing around by bus. not quite so glam, but probably more reliable!
Pôle universitaire de sciences de gestion
Lacaton & Vassal Architectes
Hotel St. James by Jean Nouvel is in a small town just outside the city.
too obvious?
