The Project

Located in the protected Marais district (Paris), near Place des Vosges, the former Minimes Barracks has been rehabilitated into social housing, a daycare center, a community restaurant, and an activity zone. 

Occupied for over a hundred years by the military, this space is now frequently visited by families. Previously inaccessible to the public because it was reserved for the Gendarmerie, this former barracks of more than 7,000 m² retains its original rectangular shape, thus preserving the tranquility of the residents. Several arch-shaped entrances reflect the desire to open the building onto the street.

This real estate complex now includes seventy social housing units, ranging from studio apartments (T1) to five-room apartments (T5), including one reserved for shared housing and three specially adapted for elderly dependent residents.

La nouvelle crèche permet d’accueillir quatre-vingt-dix bébés, assurant alors le confort des habitants.

Risk Control’s Support

Prise en charge par Elogie-Siemp, cette réhabilitation d’un montant de 12,3 millions d’euros a été suivie par Risk Control qui a réalisé une mission complète de contrôle technique.
