Gentbruggebrug is a creation of Edmond Block, a tanner from Ledeberg.
This industrialist who entered politics was immediately noticed for his commitment to a bridge over the Scheldt, which would connect Gentbrugge with the other peripheral municipalities.
However, the Catholics did not take this proposal to heart and feared that 'Block with its bridge would bring the cramped soul from St-Amandsberg, Oostakker and Destelbergen to Gentbrugge'.
