Euroméditerranée project: “a town in a town”

The French city of Marseille hit a huge turning point in its history in carrying out the largest urban redevelopment operation in the south of Europe: Euroméditerranée project, uniting large public players and international investors. It was a major project for the second largest city in France, and Euroméditerranée has now become the sought-after destination for domiciliation, work, innovation, discovery, creation, exchange, experimentation, and many more things… a Mediterranean quality of life in an ideal setting, completed by a sea view.

The project is laid out over several districts, some amongst them being The Central Business District- the 3^rd in France-, and 2 innovative eco-districts: Fabriques (250,000m²) and Smartseille (58,000m²). These areas are novel urban testing grounds, that promote social diversity, innovation, and Smart Cities. The issue of environmental performance is also challenged- i.e. 70% of the zone’s energy is renewable.

The project in numbers

This 480-hectares of new space propose the complete package for its future international businesses and residents: domiciliation for 40,000 people; numerous shops spread over 270,000m²; hotels; restaurants; more than 200,000m² of public infrastructure; state-of-the-art offices; 40-hectares of public green space; 5,300 additional businesses…

An excellent location

The site is situated at the heart of France’s southern city of Marseille, just 20 minutes from both the international Marseille-Provence Airport (160 routes and 33 airlines) and the Marseille St-Charles TGV (High-Speed Train) Station, from which 20 TGVs a day depart for Paris. In a wider frame, the site is also situated at the heart of a major multimodal network, with 3 motorways linking Spain, Italy, and North Europe being immediately accessible. The Central Business District benefits greatly from excellent accessibility within the metropole; many public transport options are available. 2 tramlines lead to Castellane (neighbourhood) and the Palais Longchamp (cultural monument) in just a few minutes. The metro runs all the way through Euroméditerranée. The Arenc-Euroméditerranée TER (Regional Express Train) stops right in the Central Business District. In addition, there are many self-service bike stations and car-sharing options.

The 3^rd leading business district in France
