Although I wasn't able to establish the link conclusively, I think dda's map of the nearby "AZF Explosion crater" explains why this area of Toulouse, France was abandoned:

It's the old "National Explosives Factory of Braqueville". Activity ceased in 1978. But still a property of ministry of defense.
