Particular attention has been paid to the Terrasses de Coquelles landscaping. A third of the overall development budget has been designated to land improvement.
The “green” infrastructure has been organised in such a way as to privilege three main factors: maximum protection from the prevailing winds, unobstructed panoramic views and maximum visibility from the A16 motorway.
It is based on the original cadastral sheet line system whose northwest/southeast orientation has a profound influence on the zone and continues to justify its historic title of “Longues Pièces” – literally “Long pieces”.

| Terrasses’ landscaping |
The harmonious nature of the Terrasses de Coquelles landscaping depends entirely on the “green guidelines” put in place by the commune (principally guaranteeing green areas around the zone and on the access roads), and the respect shown for the “green specifications” by each company that acquires a unit.
Al these species are recommended by the “Parc naturel régional des Caps et Marais d’Opale” nature reserve. They are adapted to the local soil and climate.
