Picture yourself in a bustling area of Romainville, where the past and the present collide. Have you ever heard of Est Ensemble? It is a unique territorial public establishment that has shaped the lives of over 400,000 people in Seine-Saint-Denis. Behind its name lies a powerful story of unity and progress. In 2010, nine cities, Bagnolet, Bobigny, Bondy, Le Prè Saint-Gervais, Les Lilas, Montreuil, Noisy-le-sec, Pantin and Romainville, decided to pool resources and forge a shared destiny. This collective ambition, known as Est Ensemble, embraced a grand vision – to transform the eastern outskirts of Paris and make them a vibrant hub of innovation, sustainability, and social well-being. With a shared goal of fostering community spirit, developing a thriving cultural landscape, and fostering responsible urban development, Est Ensemble has become the driving force behind the region’s transformation. Over the years, this unique alliance has brought to life ambitious projects, revitalizing dilapidated neighborhoods, and breathing new life into the area.
