Gaillard

In June 2022, Ginkgo acquired this former garage of 0.3 ha site in Gaillard, in a neighborhood located on the French-Swiss border, 600m away from Geneva. 

Pollution is mainly caused by the presence of asbestos in existing buildings. Asbestos removal and clearance works will have to be carried out.

The redevelopment of the site will include a 5,300 sqm residential program (open and social) and will focus on carbon footprint and landscaping. 

The project will enable the plot to be desartificialised and an "urban forest" should be created over an area of around 400 sqm, using the Miyawaki method. These micro-forests provide numerous ecosystem services, improve the living environment and require little maintenance.
