Place du Millénaire

“Imagine a shopping center built on the concept of water and nature.” You might raise an eyebrow at that, but here at Place du Millénaire, that’s exactly what we have. Opened in 2011, Place du Millénaire isn’t just a shopping mall. It’s a sprawling eco-district spread across a massive 100,000 square meters! This entire complex, with its offices and shops, is designed around the themes of water and nature. Stretching for 500 meters along the Canal de l’Ourcq and a branch of the Canal Saint-Denis, Place du Millénaire offers a unique experience. You can stroll along its banks just like you would on the Seine, enjoying the fresh air and the sight of boats bobbing gently in the water. What’s more, the architecture itself is designed to evoke the area’s industrial past. The varied facades resemble the old warehouses and shops that once lined the docks. And then there’s the massive 10,000 square meter glass roof! It bathes the whole center in a warm, natural light, giving it the feel of a giant greenhouse. But Place du Millénaire isn’t just about looks. It’s a true eco-district, boasting a Carrefour hypermarket, 120 boutiques, and a whopping 2,800 underground parking spaces. So, next time you’re looking for a shopping experience that’s a little different, come and experience the unexpected at Place du Millénaire – where nature meets commerce.
