The Gare des Mines-Fillettes project (600 ha) opens up a 1930s social housing estate, which will be renovated, and develops an area consisting of a railway wasteland and reorganised sports facilities. On this site, it is creating a new, predominantly residential district, structured by a public space with a powerful landscape framework and a range of public facilities, mainly sports facilities, including the Adidas Arena.
The ZAC straddles the ring road, transforming its northern bank into a productive district that can evolve towards a more residential function, in continuity with the urban project led by Plaine Commune.
The project takes into account the gradual redevelopment of the ring road, which will begin in 2024 to coincide with the Olympic and Paralympic Games: traffic calming, massive tree planting and, eventually, the creation of a level crossing.

Gare des Mines - Fillettes événement
Location
Gare des Mines-Fillettes is one of the concrete results of the major Paris Nord-Est urban development project:
- the freeing up of railway rights of way and increased urban transport services have enabled the development of new neighbourhoods ;
- tree-lined areas planted from one neighbourhood to the next have strengthened the green network, which is now being further developed.
Bordered by Boulevard Ney and the warehouse of the same name, the ZAC is flanked on one side by Porte de la Chapelle and on the other by Porte d'Aubervilliers. It therefore benefits from :
- their gradual redevelopment and the arrival of the Condorcet Campus;
- excellent public transport links (M12, T3b, RER E; T8 coming soon).
Key points
The project combines new construction and urban renewal (Cité Charles Hermite).
Landscape architect Michel Desvigne aims to make the landscape the main driving force behind the site's transformation.
At either end of the project, the Porte de la Chapelle and Porte d'Aubervilliers will become calmer urban spaces.
The district will retain its historic sporting vocation, reinforced by the Adidas Arena.
A temporary space will serve as a precursor to the future Place Charles Hermite, with the participation of local residents.
The project anticipates the transformation of the Périphérique into an urban boulevard.

The project combines new construction and urban renewal. Paris Habitat will renovate the Charles Hermite housing estate between 2024 and 2030. P&Ma will market the building plots and develop the public spaces. The housing estate will benefit from the urban enhancement provided by the development project, which in turn will be able to build on the assets of the existing neighbourhood. The public space, as well as the shops and facilities, will provide a link between the old and the new.
-
The urban project management team, led by landscape architect Michel Desvigne, sees the landscape as the main driving force behind the transformation of the site. It is the backbone of the project, the emblematic figure of the district. It makes the process of urban redevelopment visible, brings coherence to the whole, and erases the infrastructural rupture. Plants contribute to the neighbourhood's resilience, while reinforcing the landscape continuity that is developing throughout the wider North-East Paris area.
-
The two gateways bordering the project site are gradually being transformed into more human ur-bain spaces, resembling very large squares. The Porte de la Chapelle has begun its transformation, with cycle paths, pedestrian forecourts (Arena / Campus Condorcet), lighting, planting, etc. At Porte d'Aubervilliers, the arrival of the T8 tramway will be accompanied by a redevelopment of the public space.
-
Existing sports facilities will be maintained (Espace Parisien de Glisse), rebuilt after the works (three large playing fields), or added to (martial arts, boxing, dance). The district will thus retain a strong sporting vocation, reinforced by the Adidas Arena, built by the City of Paris to host some of the events of the Paris 2024 Games. As well as hosting national and international sporting competitions, the Arena will be home to Paris Basketball, as well as two gymnasiums to meet local needs.
-
A leisure and meeting space called "SALUT" has been developed on former tennis courts (1.200 sqm). It is run by a specialist manager who brings together local socio-cultural players. The space is ideal for testing new uses, as a precursor to the future Place Charles Hermite. It is helping to revitalise the district by enabling local residents to reinvest in public spaces.
The Station Gare des Mines, a "convivial and festive laboratory devoted to emerging artistic scenes", has occupied a historic pavilion in the old station since 2016. This venue will be perpetuated in the final project.
-
The gradual transformation of the Boulevard Périphérique is underway throughout Paris :
- more links, through public transport and soft modes ;
- more nature, in the image of a green corridor (massive planting) ;
- more proximity (the quarter-hour city).From summer 2024, one lane will be reserved for car sharing, taxis and public transport, and the speed limit will be 50 km/h. In the medium term, a level crossing of the boulevard will link the northern and southern parts of the Gare des Mines-Fillettes sector.
Interactive map
The southern part includes the Charles Hermite housing estate, currently being renovated by Paris Habitat, and future residential buildings on either side of a planted avenue. The redeveloped Porte de la Chapelle will be home to the new Adidas Arena, which will be delivered for the Olympic and Paralympic Games, and the Condorcet Campus, which will open in 2025. The original sports fields along the ring road have been restored.
The northern part of the site will mainly accommodate economic and productive activities, as well as the cultural and musical venue ‘La Station’, which will be retained in the final project.
Ecological transition
In addition to complying with the City of Paris' Bioclimatic PLU and environmental specifications that are often more demanding than the regulations, three key facts characterise the GDM project's response to the challenges of adaptation and ecological transition.
- An urban forest
The landscape framework that characterises the project plays a fundamental role: trees reduce the heat, the extension of the green network and the choice of appropriate species protect the biodiversity of flora and fauna. Soil permeability and rainwater management preserve resources.
- 65,000 m² of green spaces, including 25,000 m² for public use
- A target of 14m² per inhabitant
- 2000 trees planted
- Renewable energy: geothermal energy
In addition to the bioclimatic design of the buildings, which are in line with the City of Paris' new PLU, the district will benefit from a geothermal heat and cooling supply. The supply of these fluids to existing buildings is currently under study.
- Special attention to health issues
As well as mitigating the heat, other health issues are guiding the design of the project: the comfort of new and renovated housing, protection from road nuisance, development of sports and active mobility, the importance of undeveloped areas (over 50%), the presence of a municipal health centre, etc.
