The former industrial belt of Paris

This 1.3-hectare former railway repair centre and warehouse was acquired in December 2022. Ideally located in the southern part of Saint-Denis, close to the Avenue du Président Wilson, it is well served by public transport and major road networks, providing rapid access to Paris and the inner suburbs to the north-west and east of the capital.

With its long industrial history, the site is heavily contaminated. Extensive asbestos removal and demolition work is required, and large quantities of industrial waste need to be disposed of.


This urban revitalisation project will enable the site to be de-identified and new public spaces and green areas to be created, while preserving some of its historic features. This project is benefiting from technical assistance under the NCFF, aimed at increasing the biodiversity and climate resilience of the project through nature-based solutions.
