Every year, invitations to tender are issued to revitalize the capital and never let it fall asleep. A case in point is L'Arche, the project chosen to revitalize the Port de Javel, where food trucks already meet in the La Javelle space.
From July 2022, this side of Paris, which until a few years ago was left fallow, will be home to an aquatic complex, with an Olympic swimming pool (off the Seine, to start with), sports halls, rehabilitation and balneotherapy areas covering 1,000m2.
This 1,000m2 superstructure will be a sports club open to all, "with prices as affordable as possible within the limits of profitability", according to the Why Not Production development director in charge of the project. Access to the club will be by annual subscription, membership of one of the region's clubs, or entry fee. "The idea is not to be a closed club, but a place open to encounters, with facilities for everyone," Sébastien Marques assures Cnews.
But that's not all: the building, which is 110 m long and 15 m wide, will also be extended on land, taking up a total area of no less than 4,500 m2.
Imagine a 50 m open-air swimming pool . Also on the programme: physiotherapists, a balneotherapy and rehabilitation center. Then it's down a notch to discover a 100-seat dance hall in the hold , complete with the famous gyms, including a cycling room .
The pool solarium will be transformed into a rooftop guinguette in the evenings, and an overhead projector unrolled on the barge will allow you to watch films, soccer matches...
Deckchair space on the quays, terraces and even rooftop await you very soon.
L'Arche doesn't stop there, asa guinguette opens its doors on the quay, another spot where sports classes , DJ sets, food and bar await you! Rosé Bonheur is the name of this brand-new festive venue opening its doors on the Quai de Javel on May 18, 2022.
Rosé Piscine, the new festive and sporty terrace-bar of Javel is unveiled
Rosé Piscine, the new bar-guinguette of the Why Not Productions family, who created the different Rosa Bonheur, has opened its doors. While waiting for the opening of the Arche Javel just opposite, which promises a huge swimming pool on a barge, we go to relax, dance, enjoy ourselves and do sports with a great program! [Read more]
