The 'Cœur de vie' project in Grésy-sur-Aix continues with the expansion of Parc de la Tour and the temporary closure of its main playground starting October 15, 2026.

The Parc de la Tour in Grésy-sur-Aix is entering a new transformation phase as part of the Cœur de vie project. The green space will grow by over 600 m², with a new 380 m² landscaped forecourt. These developments aim to provide residents with an increasingly pleasant and convivial living environment.
Following the opening of L’Esquisse and the park's landscaping, work now focuses on adding more greenery, planting new trees, creating public spaces, and improving pedestrian paths. These works, integrated with the l’Eden Parc real estate development, commence on Thursday, October 15, 2026.
To ensure user safety, the large slide area of Parc de la Tour will be temporarily closed from October 15, 2026. Reopening is scheduled before summer 2027. The rest of the park, the zip line, and pedestrian paths will remain accessible during this period.
Ultimately, the Cœur de vie project will include a senior residence with 29 rooms, 4 student accommodations, and approximately 120 rental units (private and social), some with a Real Solidarity Lease (BRS) to facilitate affordable homeownership.
The municipality of Grésy-sur-Aix aims to manage its evolution responsibly while preserving its quality of life. The temporary closure of the playground is presented as a necessary constraint for the safe completion of the work.
