Cofinimmo carries out large and middle-scale renovations of our properties with a view to letting and maintaining them in our portfolio over the long term. This means we can offer our customers high quality properties of durable construction, whilst keeping down maintenance costs.

Major projects in progress include:

1. Nursing homes

Cofinimmo continously conducts (re)development projects within the healtcare sector allowing to assist the operators in their expansion. In 2012, the major construction/renovation works carried out in the homes were Suzanna Wesley(Brussels), Noordduin(Coxyde), Lucie Lambert (Halle), Brise d'Automne & Chêne (Ransart), la Quiétude / Les VII Voyes (Dédrin), De Mouterij (Alost), Solva (Alost), les Jours Heureux (Lodelinsart), Zonnetij (Aartselaar) and Vishay(Brussels). Several construction and renovation works are already planned for 2013.

Livingstone I-II, Brussels

Cofinimmo will renovate this 35,000m² building site comprehensively in 2012 to convert it into a mixed project (residential/offices). For the residential part (Livingstone I, 16,000m²) Cofinimmo endeavours to obtain K-level 30 and E-level 60. The functional structure of the property, its energy performance and environmental targets led this project to the nomination in the competition for 'the conversion of inoccupied offices into residential properties' organised by the Region of Brussels.
