ÉCOQUARTIER DE L'ARSENAL

A must-see! Launched in 2013 with the creation of a public park, the metamorphosis taking place in the Arsenal district catches the eye of everyone who passes by this former military wasteland at the southern entrance to the city center, a stone's throw from the Cité de la Gastronomie. The 57-metre-high NTEA, or Nouvelle Tour Arsenal, has a lot to do with this. Scheduled for completion at the end of 2023, the building will house 60 residential units and 1,000 square metres of office space. Designed by Arte Charpentier and engineered by Dijon-based Elithis, the tower aims to set an example for the future of housing. The rest of the eco-district, 12.6 hectares in all, will include 1,400 homes and 27,500 square meters of shops, services and public and cultural facilities by 2026. Between the tramway and the banks of the Canal de Bourgogne, in a spirit of social and generational diversity and high architectural quality, the new eco-neighborhood is coming to life with its first residents, a day-care center, a senior citizens' residence...

An abundance of real estate projects. Social landlords launched their projects in 2017. Grand Dijon Habitat has launched the Rosa Park program, with 84 low-income housing units. It is also building the Rives du Canal residence with 32 affordable and 32 low-income housing units. Habellis, via its Aqisia brand, has delivered the Oxygène program with 56 housing units, and the large-scale Essen'Ciel development project, with around 100 homes, is currently under construction. CDC Habitat has started work on Avenue 4, while BVM Promotion is building the 43-unit Confluence residence, Nexity has completed the 53-unit Plaisance residence, and BFC Promotion has completed the 26-unit Jardins de l'Arsenal affordable housing scheme. Other programs have been launched for 2022, including one by developer Pichet with 100 homes and a 150-unit mixed-use seniors' residence. Seniors will also be able to take advantage of the Village d'or turquoise, featuring 84 low-cost housing units for seniors. Finally, Belles Houses brings together 136 homes, including 50 single-family homes built by developers Sopirim and Voisin Immobilier using wood-frame construction. The first units were delivered at the end of 2023.

A tower like no other. Called NTEA, Nouvelle Tour Arsenal, the 17-storey residential tower designed by Elithis is resolutely modern, with a social hub on the top floor, Le Diamant, featuring a garden, a deck and 2 living-room areas accessible to residents. The building will be energy-positive, with a living area of 3,860 m² and a height of 60 metres.
