Description

This project is an open negotiation between the different parties involved in the development of the city. The development of the project began with the the commissioning of the first detailed diagnostic study of the whole area which identified the restoration of the Santa Engracia UVA as a priority intervention, so much for its urgency as its viability. Plan Especial de Reforma Interior (P.E.R.I) establishing the framework for planning the restoration of the district and process of regeneration. The PERI proporsals for the programme, public, space and building the neighbourhood were organized around eight strategically prioritized lines, which sought to restructure the neighbourhood and recover its relationships. Strategic lines that link neighbourhood-inhabitants: identity, generational change and accessibility. Strategic lines in relation to the cultural environment: visibility, recuperation and connection with the city and territory. Strategic lines in relation to the natural environment: sustainability and landscape. The project is included in a life fund programme and is currently in development.

Description

This implementation in a bad reputation district of Marseille is the result of a long participative process between the inhabitants, the social landlords, Marseille Rénovation Urbaine, Marseille City Council and the 2 Europan runner-up teams. The project started with the creation of a number of public spaces in anticipation of the transformation of the neighbourhood. The shape of these spaces is not determined by one function only. Playground and sport area are intertwined. These are no longer sports grounds imposing themselves on the city, but parts of the city sometimes used for sport. A walkway runs like a thread through all the areas of the project. The office Concorde had very clear ideas about accommodation in the zone known as the “Carrñe Sud” which had long been agreed on as an area for housing development. Their idea was bases on a new way of using the land to make housing accessible and to depart from the traditional model of tenand and social landlord. Europan12 Marseille Completed public spaces5 Europan12 Marseille Completed public spaces3 In 2020, the team won the contract to develop the 2.1 hectares site with a team including a developer -a local start-up company interested in giving a more human face to large-scale developments and another architectural office co-opted for his knowledge of low-carbon construction. In a sector that will eventually include about 130 housing units, the group is to create social housing units, two thirds of which will enjoy a joint land lease arrangement (BRS). A solidarity land office (imagined by the office Concorde) will remain ownership of the land to reduce purchase cost. This project for a Mediterranean habitat that is both dense and low-rise is currently in progress.
