Through its calls for “1970s” projects, Poste Immo aims to select innovative projects that are led and developed by groupings. The new uses these projects propose for the buildings must reflect their respective cities’ commitment to transformation. They must also be consistent with Le Groupe La Poste’s values, and those of the partners associated with the calls for projects. Other than this, the candidates have complete freedom, in terms of design and implementation, to put forward innovative solutions to construction, planning and energy issues.
Launched in collaboration with the city of Grenoble and Grenoble-Alpes Métropole, this call for projects was announced on 13 March 2019 at MIPIM, the international market for property professionals. The consultation begins on 29 March 2019 on https://patrimoineenmouvement.laposte.fr, with candidates’ bids scheduled for submission on 7 June 2019. Selection will involve two phases, with the winner to be announced in February 2020.
The architectural and urban development proposals submitted must meet the guidelines for development in the study conducted by the city on the Hoche Malraux sector, and must also harmonise with other nearby projects, while maintaining the activity of the post office.
