Les Nouveaux Constructeurs and Epamarne sign a sale agreement for a 78,500 m² mixed-use scheme in Bussy-Saint-Georges

On Thursday, Epamarne, the public development agency for Marne-la-Vallée, and Les Nouveaux Constructeurs signed a sale agreement for a site on the edge of Bussy-Saint-Georges, at the entrance to the town. The site is served by the A4 motorway. The agreement follows a public call for projects, which was awarded to a team made up of Les Nouveaux Constructeurs and the practice SCAU.

The design is therefore based on plans by the practice SCAU and the landscape architect Base. SCAU is in charge of the urban design of the project and will deliver some 18,000 m², half of phase 1, while the practice Brenac + Gonzalez will complete the rest of phase 1.

The bases of the buildings will house shops and offices totalling 9,500 m², with 850 homes on the upper floors. Of these, 25% will be social rented housing and 15% affordable home ownership, while 150 homes will be set aside for older people or young professionals.

Work is due to begin next year and will be split into four phases over a total of nine years, the first of which is expected to be completed in 2015.
