Built environment and local building types

Fontvieille is a district reclaimed from the sea in the 1970s and 1980s, built entirely on infill. Its contemporary mid-rise buildings sit alongside a marina, a zone of light industrial and office activity, retail units and extensive irrigated green spaces. This deck-based urban development comes with crawl spaces, service galleries and vast underground car parks carrying water, heating and drainage networks. The residual moisture of the coastal infill and the continuity of these underground volumes strongly shape the behaviour of unwanted species.

Seasonal pressures and sentinel species in Fontvieille

The German cockroach (Blattella germanica) and the American cockroach (Periplaneta americana) exploit the warm, humid service galleries, the latter readily climbing up through pipework in summer. The brown rat (Rattus norvegicus) follows foundation slabs, the harbour's rock armour and crawl spaces, where it nests under cover all year round. The yellow-legged gull (Larus michahellis) settles on the district's flat roof terraces from spring onwards, a period when it noisily defends its nests. The Argentine ant (Linepithema humile), encouraged by the watering of green spaces, forms supercolonies that enter homes during the warm months.
