Paspoel
This extensive project comprised the construction of 192 apartments for the social housing provider Woonzo.
In the Paspoel neighbourhood of Tongeren, three existing residential towers made way for three new eight-storey towers. In addition, three residential buildings of three to five storeys were constructed. Together, the six buildings comprise 192 social housing apartments. STRABAG Belgium was also responsible for the landscaping and the construction of an underground car park.
As part of the redevelopment, the outdoor spaces were also redesigned. The positioning of the new building volumes created a series of distinct landscaped areas, each with its own character.
The redevelopment of Paspoel was carried out in phases over a period of nearly eight years. The demolition and construction works were carefully coordinated so that tenants could continue to live on the site throughout the entire construction period. They moved in phases, together with their neighbours, into the newly completed buildings.
