In April 2019, AG Real Estate, ATENOR and AXA IM-Real Assets, acting on behalf of one of its clients, entered into a partnership agreement to develop an iconic project on the CCN site adjacent to the Gare du Nord in Brussels.
To recap, the CCN project is located in the heart of the North area, a district undergoing profound change which enjoys an exceptional connection to public transport (metro, bus station integrated into the building and direct access to the Gare du Nord) , and represents the natural axis of extension of the city centre.
In terms of urban lifestyle, the CCN project is the cornerstone of the renovation of the northern area and has the ambition to make it both a place of fluid passage and a pleasant living and working space. The objective will be "to bring life" through the project and for the benefit of public space by offering a mixed set of offices, shops, housing, facilities and a mobility hub.
Complying with strict criteria of durability and comfort, labeled "Green Deal", the project aims to obtain BREEAM “Outstanding” and WELL “Gold” certifications. An in-depth analysis will also be carried out in order to improve the landscaping and ecological development of the site. The project could include, among other things, green spaces, an urban vegetable garden and green roofs.
Emblematic in more than one way, the CCN project is part of the vision and desire of the Brussels Region to transform the North district into a symbol of the city of tomorrow.
