Champigny Centre station is the provisional name of a future station on Line 15 of the Paris Métro, which is part of the Grand Paris Express project. The station will serve the city of Champigny-sur-Marne.
The design of the station is complex with three underground zones: one platform area for Line 15 East (used by trains heading north towards Saint-Denis–Pleyel or west towards Pont de Sèvres), one platform area for Line 15 South (used by trains heading west towards Pont de Sèvres or east towards Noisy-Champs), and a mezzanine between the platforms. The platforms are located parallel to each other. The platform area for Line 15 South will open in 2025 and while the station box for Line 15 East will be complete, it will not open until 2030.
The station walls extend as far down as 60 metres (200 ft) and the station platforms will be located 21 metres (69 ft) below street level.




History


The station site was once a technical center for the city of Champigny-sur-Marne. The land was acquired by the Société du Grand Paris at the end of 2012 for €4 million. Preparatory work for station construction took place from April 2015 to the end of 2016.
The company Systra and the architectural firm Richez Associés were chosen for the engineering and architecture of this station.
Construction of the station box began in March 2018 and excavation of the interior space started in May 2018. Construction of the station's entrance plaza began in April 2020. The platform area for Line 15 South will open in 2025 and while the station box for Line 15 East will be complete, it will not open until 2030.
The station is currently being referred to by its project name Champigny Centre. However, the official name of the station will be chosen through a consultation process, in which the public has been asked to choose among two proposals: Champigny Centre and Champigny–La Plage.




Architecture and artwork


The primary architect for the station is Thomas Richez and his firm Richez Associés. Inside, on all the walls, the station will feature the millstone characteristic of the houses on the banks of the Marne and a railway bridge near the station. A large ceiling in the form of a metal sheet which seems to flow will also evoke the Marne.
The station will also feature a colorful neon light installation with letters which form the phrase “love differences” in 16 languages created by Michelangelo Pistoletto, and a fresco by Kevin Lucbert.
