"The project is a regenerative project due to its 3 axes of implementation that are related to the 3 main resources of the site which are :
1.    The water through its natural (Meurthe River and the multitude of streams) and artificial appearance (Canal Marne au Rhin)
2.    The actual publics spaces wich are fragmented and unwelcoming
3.    The “in between” spaces that represent a big amount of land Through replicable, simple but impactful actions, these “ressources” are transformed and enhanced to become the new landscape framework on which the urban fabric takes place."
