Bacalan, a former working-class and port district in the north of Bordeaux, is organised around the Bassins à flot, former dry docks dug out in the nineteenth century. The Second World War submarine base bears witness to its industrial past.
The area is undergoing a spectacular redevelopment: the Cité du Vin, the Bassins de Lumières set up in the submarine base, and the vast Bassins à flot scheme, which has brought thousands of new homes out of the ground around the water.
Carried by this transformation and the arrival of the tram, Bacalan is drawing growing demand. Prices sit around the city average, with a high volume of new-build housing.
The district attracts young professionals, first-time buyers and investors drawn by the supply of new-build housing around the water and the tram service. Demand focuses on recent apartments in the Bassins à flot as well as renovated working-class housing. The ongoing redevelopment and the setting of the docks support an active market.
