Three residential buildings are planned to be built at the heart of the ilôt 104 urban blocks, being part of the urban project for downtown Montreuil, designed by Alvaro Siza, Michel Corajoud, Christian Devillers, and Laurent Beaudouin. The housing project deals with a forsaken urban space, revealing natural topography and visuals of remarkable historic buildings. The different buildings share a common entrance, underground parking, and a garden.
