MARTIN LUTHER KING PARK, PARIS

Abstract

As one of the last reserved areas available in the center of Paris, the Clichy Batignolles area has been designed to be a new 43-hectare quarter. The project, at the beginning, was elaborated for the purpose of the Paris candidature for the 2012 Olympic Games. It integrated an Olympic village for 17,000 athletes, training spaces and re-conversion conditions for these infrastructures. The project focuses on the insertion into the existing urban fabric of a new quarter made of 3,500 housing units, offices, commercial facilities and public services set out around a park. This 10-hectare park is a pilot realized in terms of sustainable development.
