"The subject of productive cities today refers directly to the capability of industrial processes and services to open more on cities. Productive spaces should offer more visible spaces, processes and networks to the rest of the urban realm. In the specific context of Pays de Dreux, with its three (very different) sites, the aim is simultaneously to contribute to the attractiveness of small rural cities and to create more porosity between industrial areas and the urban fabric."
