In Paris, "a huge chunk of land is common property and land opportunities map does not exist," warns Michael Korsakoff, General Secretary of the Club property developers and land in Ile-de-France (CDIF). If the local development plan (PLU) gives clues to the land of gators, the mutation sites remains difficult to predict. So when a nugget of land is finally identified, "we all meet, as sponsors, on the same projects," says Veronica Guillemin, President of the CDIF. The bidding has become very difficult to measure … "In addition from 3000 € / m2 GFA (Gross Floor Area Net, that is to say actually building), the price of land flies. In a recent vast wastelands of Paris, in the heart of the new district of Batignolles (XVII), the City of Paris ceded the end of 2010 to Cogedim land to 3 800 € / m2 floor area.There are apartments sold off-plan more than 8000 € / m2. Their delivery is expected in 2012, this eco-neighborhood in saving energy. Some buildings will peak at 50 meters, 37 meters beyond the date authorized. The future high court will reach even 200 yards on the ground of a former station. Altitudes deemed inefficient, but that may be authorized by the latest changes in the local plan, currently subject to public inquiry.
In Paris, the property is seeking a future in height. Future but also social. In the eleventh, boulevard de Charonne, 8000 m2 of a former industrial site will give birth to 100 housing units in 2014. Meanwhile, in the thirteenth, a EcoZac flourish on the site of the former goods station at Rungis, which will combine offices, housing and social amenities.In the hunt to land, the BIA (concerted development zones) is cut, it will be understood, the lion's share. Social housing too. Yet in 2001, only the wide range of Paris left bank was a planning area. Teams of the Deputy Mayor of Paris responsible for Housing, Jean-Yves Mano, are on the lookout for the slightest bit. The intervention service division of the Directorate of Planning does not hesitate to preempt. "Provided that motivate the right of first refusal by a social housing project or general interest, it says there. In 2010, 11,831 declarations of intent to dispose (DIA) have been investigated. But only 2736 cases were studied with a magnifying glass, which led to 68 preemptions. "It is far less than in 2009 (93), and especially in 2008, where 146 pre-emptions had been decided …The City Council did, too, the cost of soaring prices, despite an annual budget of preemptions for 100 million euros. In the eighth, the response service to acquire land abandoned building, too expensive.
Paris could catch up by 2014 its backlog in social housing, with six years ahead of schedule. "10% of the space are changing urban Paris, Jean-Yves Mano evaluated. But a hundred other plots may be subject to negotiations, which we could consider 15,000 homes … "The City Council has established in recent years, the list of forty car repair garages … Rue de la Pompe in the sixteenth century, Renault has sold one at Sodearif, a subsidiary of Bouygues. Another avenue Mozart, should follow the same path … Each time, the City negotiates affordable housing, at least half of the program.Private developers and public donors, however, working in concert. Despite political tensions in the sixteenth century, several other sites, blocked for years by the use of residents, should result in parallel, such remedies being depleted easy pay day loans. In the key housing, particularly social services.
Committed to a policy of transfer tax, the state adds its contribution to the transformation of land in Paris. According to Jean-Martin Delorme at the regional and inter accommodation and housing (DRIHL), "in 2009, the state has allocated so that the land can be built 329 homes, including 194 social.In 2010, participation has increased, so that 1302 units are produced, of which 859 social. "In 2011, the state has spent on housing in Paris a bigger budget (100 million) for the regions and Rhone-Paca Alps combined.
Buildings over bus depots
Nothing would do but without the SNCF and RATP Réseau Ferré de France (RFF). Heritage Land SNCF? 156 hectares. That of RATP? 260 hectares. As to RFF, the second landowner in France with 103,000 hectares of land. "The RATP has today more than empty land," assures yet Rémi Feredj, director of space and heritage of the RATP, which helped in the 90s, building programs Montsouris, in the nineteenth, in the seventeenth and twentieth. And yet today, boulevard Jourdan, RATP still collaborates with the City of Paris for 200 housing units and 350 students.The buildings rise above a bus depot. Technical prowess. "Here in the twentieth, opposite our office, we will bury another repository, then build on top of offices, a school and a nursery," said Remi Feredj. RATP therefore maintains depots and workshops in Paris, but imagine a new land, while overlays and juxtapositions. Street Desnouettes (fifteenth arrondissement), 47 units will emerge behind a business unit of the metro line 12. According to a performance contract with the state, RFF is committed to mobilizing its land for 1.2 billion euros over five years between 2008 and 2012. Goal: Create 15,000 units in France. A private operator, Pitch Promotion, for example, already won in late 2010, a site RFF Street Castagnary (fifteenth arrondissement). Other rail sites could still mutate, in the twelfth, eighteenth, and nineteenth arrondissements.In all, "1 million square meters of floor area to fifteen years," we are assured at RFF. Meanwhile, in the nineteenth century, a new station-Gospel Aeolus will come with the added bonus of 27,000 m2 of offices and 1000 m2 of shops.
Meanwhile, to release more land more quickly, experts, to the State, reflect on fiscal measures. They are looking to reverse the plan capital gains and taxing landholders refusing to sell them. Tax on undeveloped land is not very effective. "We could consider increasing the property tax on developable land," suggested Poirot Pascale, president of the National Union of developers developers (Snal). Some suggest a tax on the minimum density.More iconoclastic imagine "to add another floor to Paris buildings, because very sparsely protected," recalls Henry Buzy-Cazaux, honorary president of the Institute of Management of real estate services.
The city of Haussmann has long obeyed an ideal city less dense, difficult to reconcile with the height of land planners in the twenty-first century. "You could also consider a rationalization of action, often abusive, hampering construction projects", he explains. An idea that engages players from all sides of the ruthless world of land development.
