The Urban Plan provides reference to the East, after partial demolition of the building Marivaux, the extension of Descartes's Walk. Since the North-South axis, we propose pedestrian crossing between East and West to serve the new school complex. The path from Beaumarchais Avenue, an actual profile from the city due to the presence of a new timber building. This 2 levels construction consists on a new nursery school and recreation center, while the existing building, built by B. Lafaille on Jean Prouvé building system, is rehabilitated to receive the two elementary schools. In the West, a generous forecourt, which we call "Court School" begins on the driveway Beaumarchais Descartes to reach the aisle. True "backbone" of the project, it gives direct access to the hall of the nursery school and then to playgrounds of elementary schools as well as all local shared.
