Montreuil

The 0.3 ha site (Tour Orion) was acquired from Gecina in July 2021. The building was constructed in 1978 and is located on the corner of “rue de Vincennes” and “rue Kléber”, near the “Croix de Chavaux” metro station in Montreuil (93), a commune in the south of Seine-Saint Denis, bordering the 20th arrondissement of Paris.

The site is an asbestos-contaminated office building, in which large asbestos removal works will have to be carried out. To minimise the carbon footprint, the building will only be partially demolished, and the superstructure will be preserved. At least 85% of inert construction and demolition materials are planned to be reused/recycled on- or off-site.

Ginkgo Advisor and Alios Développement have partnered together to redevelop the office building into a 12,800 sqm mixed-use development. The future Tour Orion designed by the Moatti-Rivière architectural office will include coliving spaces, a hotel, a restaurant, an art gallery and studios.

Pending the start of the works, a temporary occupation of the Tower has been organised in partnership with local associations and artists.
