A temporary occupation project collaborated with diverse entities, Les Grands Voisins (LGV), has been set up on a former hospital site in Paris, the 14th, pending the new construction work in the redevelopment project. Between 2010 and 2020, LGV served accommodations for vulnerable people and provided ateliers, offices and shops to creative businesses by re-using abandoned buildings. Furthermore, the performance of LGV influenced the redevelopment plan itself, which will preserve most of the existing buildings. LGV’s outcome suggests a strategic way of reorganization and management of surplus public facilities to build sustainable environment in population shrinking society.
