On Sunday 27 June 2021, the Place Emile Bockstael and its surroundings gained a new look thanks to the redevelopment work carried out by the Bockstael sustainable district contract.
After a year of work and a long participatory process with the inhabitants and actors of the neighbourhood, a greener, more convivial and safer space was inaugurated in the presence of many elected representatives of the City of Brussels, the Brussels-Capital Region and the Federal Government. Residents discovered a host of participatory, fun, sporting and musical activities along with their families and neighbours.
