Upper Town: Charles River, and a succession of low terraces ascending gradually to the borders of the forested Laurentian Mountains. The city site falls naturally into two great divisions—the upper town and the lower town.
Upper Town.—Exclusively residential and commercial, the upper town occupies the heights of the tableland and includes three distinct geographical parts: (1) the walled city at the eastern end; (2) the ancient faubourgs, or suburbs, long since integrated into the city; and (3) a group of western suburbs including Sillery, Sainte Foy, and Cap Rouge. The stone fortifications and historic gates of the eastern area give Quebec a unique character.

HATFIELD is a town in southeastern England, in Hertfordshire, 18 miles (28 km) northwest of London. Under the 1946 Towns Act, a New Town, based on the old town, was begun in 1948 to relieve housing problems in the Greater London area. The center of the old town was redeveloped as a residential and shopping district. Industry in the area consists of aircraft companies and plants making cardboard boxes.
