In 2018, Vinci Immobilier and BNP Paribas Real Estate were selected as winners of a consultation launched by the European Metropolis of Lille (MEL) to transform a 3 ha site that hosted its historic headquarters in Euralille. Sold for €95 million in 2023, this site will be transformed into “a new district of city and life”, in the words of Caroline Sainderichin, Deputy CEO of BNP Paribas Immobilier Promotion. Named Metropolitan Square, it will include 87,000 m² of floor area, including 2,000 m² of shops and activities, 18,000 m² of housing and 67,000 m² of offices. In
