(52271) Lecorbusier is an asteroid of the central main belt that was discovered by the German astronomer Freimut Börngen on September 8, 1988 at the Thuringian State Observatory Tautenburg ( IAU code 033).
The mean diameter of the asteroid was calculated to be 4.863 km (± 0.076), the albedo as 0.223 (± 0.018).
The asteroid belongs to the Eunomia family, a group named after (15) Eunomia , to which probably five percent of the asteroids in the main belt belong. The ageless (not osculating ) orbital elements of (52271) Lecorbusier are almost identical with those of the smaller, if one of the absolute brightness starting from 15.4 to about 13.7, asteroids (216,832) 2006 VQ 131 .
The track from (52271) Lecorbusier was secured in 2003 so that numbering could be assigned. The asteroid was named after the French - Swiss architect , architectural theorist and urban planner Charles Édouard Jeanneret-Gris, known under the pseudonym Le Corbusier . The asteroid was named on May 1st of the same year at the suggestion of Freimut Börngen.
