LOCATION
Welcome to a truly connected neighbourhood! Sure to be one of Geneva’s most vibrant areas, O’VIVES is ideally situated. Located just a few minutes by foot from Geneva’s famous Jet d’Eau and the Rue Basses – the Old Town’s shopping district – it is effectively an extension of the downtown.
With the new LEMAN Express, this neighbourhood became major axis for mobility. The new “Genève – Eaux‑Vives” train station connects the left and right banks, bringing Switzerland and France closer together. And if you want to relax, the lakeshore and one of the city’s most beautiful parks are just steps away. It’s the perfect mix of quality of life and openness to the world.
ARCHITECTURE
The renaissance of a neighbourhood.
The heart of O’VIVES is the underground railway station, “Genève – Eaux-Vives”, a crucial axis point of the LEMAN Express line. Around this is the reinterpretation of a legendary neighbourhood. A true downtown development, O’VIVES is the perfect place for strolling, shopping, services, sports and living – all in one location.
The architecture integrates fully into the identity of Eaux-Vives: it injects an intelligent vision for the future while remaining true to existing codes. Spread out three buildings – O’CENTRE, O’GALERIES and O’PARC – the project is harmoniously urban. The plaza, the green space and the underground shopping centre (O’GALERIES) create balance in the space, with sustainable development as a backdrop.
