209 new homes in Bussy-Saint-Georges
EPAMARNE, the public development agency for Marne-la-Vallée, is starting work on a new scheme of 209 homes in the Le Sycomore eco-district, in the commune of Bussy Saint-Georges. The scheme is to be delivered by a multidisciplinary urban design team assembled by Crédit Agricole Immobilier.
One of the largest eco-districts in France, Le Sycomore is due to provide up to 4,500 new homes in Bussy Saint-Georges, contributing to the national housebuilding policy.
EPAMARNE's development of this new district, intended to be exemplary in terms of sustainable development, also meets the requirements of the "Grenelle de l'environnement".
In terms of social mix, the Crédit Agricole team's scheme helps to diversify the range of housing and residential pathways within the commune. The project comprises 168 homes for private sale, 20 social homes and 21 price-capped homes, spread across apartment blocks, intermediate housing and individual houses.
The Crédit Agricole Immobilier team, made up of the architecture practice Atelier BW, the landscape practice Trait Vert, the client advisory firm les ENR and the social landlord Antin Résidence, is proposing a resolutely contemporary architectural scheme.
The scheme sets particularly demanding targets for energy efficiency, notably through achieving the Effinergie + label (RT 2012 -20%).
The treatment of the green spaces is also a major element, meeting the contemporary demands of urban ecology: quality of life in the city and respect for the environment.
