Euroméditerranée, Urban renewal project in second sector of Marseille, France
Euroméditerranée is a major urban renewal project in Marseille that transforms the area around the commercial harbor and docks. The site is being developed with housing, offices, shops, and public spaces to create a new district.
This development began in the late 1990s to address the decline of industrial areas in Marseille's port district. French state and local authorities supported the transformation to revitalize the city.
The Institut méditerranéen de la ville et des territoires brings together professionals who discuss urban development and territorial issues. People gather here regularly to share knowledge about shaping cities and regions.
The area is accessible through the Capitaine Gèze multimodal station with various transportation options. You can explore the district on foot, but allow plenty of time as the site is large and continuously being developed.
A digital platform lets visitors explore future developments in 3D before they are built. You can see how new housing, parks, and schools will look when they are completed.
