The group formed around the building Bouygues Ile-de-France, with architect Renzo Piano, was selected to build the future courthouse in Paris, said Friday the board of EPPJP.

Bouygues was competing with Vinci for this major project, to be confirmed by the signing of the PPP expected by February 2012, says in a statement.

This signature will then make public the architectural design of the book, which will be built on the ZAC Clichy-Batignolles, north of the capital, said the board of the Public Corporation of the courthouse in Paris (EPPJP ).

The project, presented as the window of a modern justice in France, was announced by Nicolas Sarkozy in April 2009 as part of his speech to the Greater Paris.

It will be completed before the end of 2016 for a 2017 start-up current, said the EPPJP.

The state and the city of Paris for a long time felt that the current courthouse in Paris, located in the Ile de la Cité in the heart of the capital, had become too dilapidated.

In addition, the premises of the High Court of Paris and the regional judicial police are now scattered over six different sites.

At a height of 160 meters, the new building will bring together on a single site all services of the Tribunal de Grande Instance of Paris and the police court.
