Pleyel tower gets ready for complete makeover
Rehabilitation work on the Pleyel Tower in Saint-Denis will begin in the 2021. This huge project involves the transformation of the emblematic building into a 4-star hotel, as well as the construction of two buildings with offices, retail spaces and a business centre right next to Grand Paris Express future metro hub.
The hardest part is done or almost done! Indeed, completely boneless, the Pleyel Tower has been cleared of its 12,000 tonnes of waste, including 740 tonnes of asbestos.
One of the largest asbestos removal and cleaning operations in urban areas in Europe”, declared Financière des Quatre Rives (FQR), design and construction operator, at the end of 2018, when completing this delicate and costly operation (10 million euros), carried out before the building permit was awarded to save time.
32,000 sqm of office space
Peaking since 1974 at more than 140 metres in the sky of Saint-Denis, this ambitious project is designed with the architecture firm 163 Ateliers.
The programme includes nearly 77,000 sqm of surface area divided between the current tower (35,000 sqm) where a 4-star hotel with 700 rooms will be built and 32,000 sqm of office space located in two new buildings (16,000 sqm each). A U-shaped building will surround the foot of the tower with 3,400 sqm of shops and the other one will be located along the railway line. Located on the site of soon-to-be demolished shopping mall, it will also include a conference and exhibition centre with an amphitheatre (6,000 sqm) and 499 underground parking spaces.
