The project is to restore three pavilions, constructed in early 1900, and to secure the reservoir as well as the
restoration and enhancement of the built heritage. This mission aims to secure access to potable water and restore the three pavilions to their original state. A complete replacement of the joinery is planned to improve the management of the building’s humidity level and increase its sustainability over time. Inside of the pavilions, each access to the water will be secured using a transparent secured glasshouse, using the architectural language of the pavilions. The exterior accesses as well as the walkway are also restored.
The project seeks to restore the historical particularities of the site while maintaining its integration into the urban environment.
