The work, which began in 2019, was carried out by BESIX and included demolition, site clearance and earthworks, as well as the entire construction of the project, from the shell to the finishing touches. Prior to the signing of the contract, the in-house design office BESIX Engineering and its partners also developed variants on engineering and methodologies.
In addition to the challenges imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic, this was a complex project, particularly because of its location, in direct proximity to the airport, a tramway line and the Promenade des Anglais, which reduced our room for manoeuvre in terms of accessibility, logistics and tower crane placement.
