In 2004, the building developer Pierre-Charles Berryer of I&C, presented the plans to construct a substantial hotel complex in historic Liège. Nearly 2 years ago ACTE 1 began the long intricate process of entering the building data of the two historically protected existing hotels by hand. The two buildings,“Hotel des comtes de Méan and Hotel Sélys-Longchamps, situated on the hill Saint Martin, are to be renovated and rebuilt as one new Royal Selys Crowne Plaza hotel. The building site was demanding: the conditions were not optimal as the site contained a steep slope, and the two existing buildings were of varying heights and levels making it difficult to determine how and where to place foundations. In addition, the site lies in a very densely built area. Used software • Allplan Architecture
