Number of apartments : 1550

The exceptionally-scaled La Berge du Lac programme occupies an over 30 ha site. Its innovative architecture and housing types will make it one of Bordeaux’s most cutting edge “eco-districts”.
This new 5000-resident district boasts many public scholastic, socio-cultural and sport facilities and is backed by a network of shops and community services. It will adopt a priority focus on sustainable development through reasonable management of resources (water, energy) and the widespread use of renewable energy (wood biomass, solar, geothermal, etc.). All its housing units will be “Home & Environment” certified.
The development is located on the eastern banks of Lac de Bordeaux, creating a natural urban transition between the centre of Bordeaux and the residential and service districts of Bordeaux-Nord. It includes the particular distinctions of three canals and several landscaped areas, including a 4 ha garden park.
