Bouygues Immobilier has launched the new Seine Ouest business district.
This area of 160,000 sq.m is the result of the combined will of the cities of Issy-les-Moulineaux and Paris. The aim is to convert the last remaining obsolete industrial zones into a new international standard business district, designed by reputed architects.
Quartier SEINE OUEST
A strategic site at the heart of a 700,000 sq.m service office space.
A remarkable location just outside Paris with the benefit of top quality transport links: RER C, Tramway T2 linking La Défense to Issy-les-Moulineaux (soon to be extended to Porte de Versailles), Tramway des Maréchaux nearby, line 8 (Balard station) and line 12 (Corentin Celton station) of the Métro. The site is near the Boulevard Périphérique and has easy access to the Left and Right Bank Seine Expressways. The little-known but very pleasant Parc Suzanne Lenglen, complete with high-quality sport facilities adds a touch of nature to this highly urban environment.
These buildings also have a very rare quality. They are all flagship buildings with high visibility.
They have all been granted the NF Bâtiment Tertiaires and the High Environmental Quality labels, and have the benefit of easy operation with energy savings through the implementation of innovative solutions and the consideration of residents’ health and comfort.

Project background
Consideration by the cities of Paris and Issy-les-Moulineaux of the potential to convert industrial sites into a business district by adapting rules on town planning.
Political desire to take advantage of these new opportunities in order to:
Political desire to take advantage of these new opportunities in order to:

A strong identity for this forward-looking district
High Environmental Quality Procedure (HEQ)
High Environmental Quality® (HQE) approach
Operations that go one step further than certification with ambitious profiles:
an entire High Environmental Quality business district.
Ongoing information campaign
for local residents and population as the worksites progress (billboards, information leaflets, etc.)
Green worksites :
A worksite that respects the environment is the natural continuation of environmental quality efforts that were implemented at the building's design phase. All construction sites generate nuisances for the surrounding environment; the challenge of having low-environmental impact sites is to limit nuisances for the benefit of the local residents, workers and the environment.
• Ongoing information and awareness campaigns for worksite personnel,
• sound pollution limited inside as well as outside the worksites,
• special attention to reducing dust and mud emissions,
• optimised consumption of water and energy.
Reducing the consumption of energy and resources :
• primary energy consumption less than 30% of that of RT2005-compliant offices
• overall primary energy consumption will be half of the average for French office premises
• CO2 emissions(@12kg/ sq.m per annum), representing an excellent performance
• Reduced proportion of glazed surfaces to minimise the need for air-conditioning
• Multi-criteria studies (acoustic, insulation, sunlight, thermodynamics) to ensure that all possible measures have been taken to ensure the comfort of the building’s future users and to reduce energy needs
• Use of solar energy (photovoltaic cells, thermal solar panels) for example for the production of domestic hot water for the company's canteen
• Different façades depending on their exposure (double or single insulation, etc.)
Waste sorting ans collection :
• Management of worksite waste: selective sorting and collection
• Waste disposal areas designed to accommodate selective sorting
More than 1,600 sq.m of bicycle storage space
, well as parking spaces for motorcycles.
