Highlights: With the steady decline in the number of cars in the capital, more and more garages are being converted into housing. Care Promotion transformed the site into 47 social housing units spread over two buildings, one of seven storeys and the other of four. They are managed by the Real Estate Agency of the City of Paris (RIVP) for fifteen years for some and twenty years for others. At the end of these periods, the owners, who purchased them at the time of construction of the site, will be able to occupy them with full rights.

It's hard to imagine that just a year ago, this building on rue de Clignancourt (Paris 18th century) housed… a garage. And yet. Care Promotion transformed the site into 47 social housing units spread over two buildings, one of seven storeys and the other of four.
