Mont Choisy leverages smart city planning and urban design principles for long-term social, cultural, environmental and economic benefit. Creating a cohesive public realm strategy, new urban centre and housing, an inclusive and integrated approach with WATG London’s planning, landscape and architecture teams, and the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, saw monocultures of sugar cane fields transformed into vibrant, mixed-use spaces set within a restored Mauritian indigenous flora landscape. The master plan promotes walkable neighbourhoods, accessible local services, increased employment opportunities, and creates leisure attractions for all – reconnecting people to the island’s natural heritage while boosting civic pride, and helping to secure its future.
