Les Bassins du Nouveau Havre
Proposed Vision
Les Bassins du Nouveau Havre is an inclusive urban project which will be primarily residential and where housing, neighbourhood retail, recreational spaces and workplaces will naturally integrate into the surrounding area.
The former basins, which were filled during the 1960s, will be partially dug out and reintegrated into the site, and will be used for recreational and contemplative purposes.
