They create a real piece of the city where quality of life is synonymous with environmental quality. Built heritage become quality public spaces, geometry of the landscape and the ripple of the river are the two movements that have served as guides to the urban composition. Parc Marianne neighborhood surprises with its ability to combine city and nature, quality of life and centrality.

Quality of life / density




"The project approach is an urban composition where the city is structured by public spaces and local facilities. It confirms the orientation of urbanization to the sea while preserving the diversity of the city. The structure of the islets allows to establish open space and give the city a readability. Vegetal corridors allow to bring a part of nature in the city center "Studio .Architecture

Mobility strategy

Marianne Parc benefits from a strategic situation. The area offers the comfort of a particularly efficient traffic network with:



  • Major roads served by the landscaped avenue Pierre Mendes France: highway, airport ...

  • The tram line 1 of the World Avenue 98 (stops: Port Marianne and Millennium)

  • The Line 3 project on the Avenue de la Mer

Biodiversity and natural areas

The habitat is designed around a large wooded park of about eight hectares, crossed from end to end by the river Lironde. Wide aisles facing south will add to the coolness of the water, natural ventilation and southern brightness. And the presence of pergolas optimize the interaction between an inner snug organized by each, and exceptional environment to enjoy the privileged climate. To the west, the basin Jacques Heart (future marina) and the Lez reinforce the attractiveness and originality of this urban area, carried around a farm originally natural heritage.


The vast park landscaped by the City is the lung area. Extending the basin Jacques Heart, it creates an axis of transparency between the projects of the City Hall and the Contemporary Art Centre. The urbanization of the area is organized around this axis ...


"Some agricultural plots will be organized around a large meadow and each plot will be abundantly planted with trees. Green and white oaks, almond trees and ornamental fruit trees will be planted on dry land under a strict alignment, however, disturbed by groves of pines. "Michel Desvigne.

Energy sobriety

Energy management is a strong point of the neighborhood. The accommodations are designed with an objective of low energy consumption. They are equipped with solar panels to produce hot water, photovoltaic panels for electricity supply and for some, external insulation. In addition to these facilities, the area will be served by a district heating network supplied based renewable energy: wood.
