Bobigny’s Abreuvoir neighborhood is bucking the trend when it comes to urban renewal. While most projects involve the demolition of large portions of neighborhoods or complexes, Abreuvoir is taking a different approach.
The city of Abreuvoir, located in Bobigny, Seine-Saint-Denis, is set to undergo a project to requalify its 1,509 social housing units. However, instead of demolishing a significant portion of the housing stock, the project only calls for the demolition of 258 units, which is less than 20% of the total.
This unique approach aims to preserve the existing neighborhood while still giving it a fresh look. By avoiding extensive demolition, the project can save costs and focus on reorganizing the neighborhood to create a new face for Abreuvoir.
The development concession for this project is expected to be entrusted to the local public company Sequano Grand Paris during the territorial council of the intercommunality Est Ensemble on June 27. This decision will mark an important step in the requalification of Abreuvoir and the revitalization of the neighborhood.
The city of Bobigny and its partners are committed to ensuring that the project benefits the residents of Abreuvoir. By focusing on rehabilitation rather than demolition, they aim to create a sustainable and inclusive community that meets the needs of its residents.
The Abreuvoir project serves as an example of how urban renewal can be approached differently. While demolition may be a common method, it is not always the most cost-effective or beneficial for communities. By embracing rehabilitation and preserving the existing housing stock, Abreuvoir is paving the way for a new model of urban renewal that prioritizes community preservation and revitalization.
As the development concession is set to be awarded later this month, the residents of Abreuvoir and the city of Bobigny eagerly await the transformation that will breathe new life into their neighborhood. With a focus on rehabilitation and a commitment to community, Abreuvoir is poised to become a shining example of successful urban renewal.
