The suburb of Carouge, southeast of Geneva, was incorporated in the city in 1816, with the large goods station and bonded warehouses of La Praille. Carouge, originally founded by Savoy as a rival to Geneva, has some attractive squares and old houses. 3km/2mi west of the city is the last of Geneva's eight bridges over the Rhône, the Pont Butin (built 1916-27, widened to eight lanes in 1970), spanning the valley at a point where it is 50 m/164ft deep.
