Thirteen projects designed to reinvent the Seine were unveiled on Wednesday, as part of a major architectural competition. Cabaret electro, art center, bakery or floating swimming pool should be born in the next few years at the edge of the Parisian river. The Seine inspired many architects, and it is indivisible from the image of the Parisian postcard, Twenty innovative proposals distributed between Paris, Rouen and Le Havre were selected as winners of the call for projects to reinvent the Seine. In Ile-de-France, thirteen of these projects have been unveiled, each aiming to redesign sites along the Seine while enhancing the river. Among these ideas on which planted architects and real estate promoters some promise indeed to change the face of the banks of the Seine. This is the case, for example, of Place Mazas, in the 12th arrondissement for a project called "L'Atelier de l'Arsenal". In this arm of water between the Seine and the Arsenal basin, the promoter REI Development Real Estate intends to create "a place for all, thought by all". Coworking spaces and theater have been designed to fit into the arches that line the bridge of Austerlitz while temporary installations take place directly on the water. The visual of the project thus presents a long pool installed on the edge of the quay.

Among the other projects selected as winners, one can also note the creation of an artisan brewery at the Briche stable in Saint-Denis. Beer production and a bar would take place in the waterfront building, which was used to distribute the beer produced at the nearby bars by barge.
