The former Ericsson research centre is a 2.1 ha land located in Massy, France, that was acquired from Natixis in June 2021. It is located just a 5-minute walk from Massy train station and 40 minutes from Paris’s main train stations and Paris-Orly airport.
The soil is contaminated by hydrocarbons due to past activities on the site. The groundwater is widely contaminated by chlorinated solvents throughout the entire area. The development of the site will require excavation of soil and potential treatment of impacted pumped groundwater before discharging.
The redevelopment plan has been developed in collaboration with Leclercq Associés agency, the developer Paris Sud Aménagement and the town of Massy. The planned programming of 56,000 sqm includes housing, offices and commercial space.
The project integrates a new public parc of 1 ha together with pedestrian pathways, squares and terrasses.
