The asset acquired from Legendre Immobilier under a forward-purchase structure (VEFA), will welcome its first students in 2028. The project includes more than 500 sqm of common areas (coworking, lounge, gym, gaming room, shared kitchens, bike storage, terraces) and over 1,000 sqm of landscaped gardens.
