We get several requests about the two high-building cranes on the seafront in Villeneuve Loubet. ‘Will there be new apartments in Villeneuve Loubet directly by the sea?’ Unfortunately, there will be no new apartments for sale in this area: the cranes are here for an extensive renovation of the harbour buildings. A critical stage has just been completed: the numerous administrative authorizations necessary for Cœur Marina, particularly the building permit for the new construction in the harbour of Villeneuve Loubet’s icon, the Marina Baie des Anges.
Major work was necessary to demolish the old building housing the thalassotherapy centre, resulting in the management, removal, and treatment of some 268 tonnes of waste and 6 tonnes of asbestos. Part of the land had been reclaimed from the sea, so soil liquefaction treatment was necessary to strengthen it, particularly concerning seismic risk.
Villeneuve Loubet harbour renewed
It will be completed in May, followed by earthworks until July, and then the structural work until June 2024. The second work will take place until spring 2025 – a crucial stage because it meets high stakes in terms of finishes, the building notably hosts a 4* hotel, a spa area, fitness area, etc. 200 parking spaces will also be provided.
Other operations are being carried out simultaneously: work on the reception platform in front of the main building, preliminary discussions with the town hall to repair the Croisette networks and with the operator Maribay Infrastructures Management concerning the terminals and lighting. The work includes the installation of Wi-Fi and video protection cameras so that the entire port part, including pontoons, will be completed by the end of the year.
Finally, it is also the essential environmental dimension of the project, which is taking shape by planting more than 120 trees, to which the roofs will be greened, and a vegetable garden will be established.
This investment is part of a larger plan that Villeneuve Loubet is rolling out. It involves developing more quality residential properties, investing in services, and expanding the activities on the seafront.
