    A quiet quay unfolds here along the Brussels-Charleroi Canal, lined with poplars and offering views of houseboats and redeveloped warehouses. Once an industrial transshipment zone, it is now a transition area between water, greenery, and urban renewal. The quay marks the beginning of the Biestebroeck district, where old warehouses are making way for new housing projects and workshops. Ideal for a short break or a glimpse of Brussels' changing canal landscape.

    We are in the southern canal area, also known as "South Port". The Quai de Biestebroeck borders the basin of the same name.

    The site was used for decades as a place for loading and unloading coal and materials useful for the operation of industries and the construction of the city. Near the railway line, here was a first-class multimodal industrial site.

    Neighbors of this former industrial zone in decline, the districts located around the basin are today the subject of a development strategy. The objective is to redeploy residential and productive activities there via innovative forms of diversity.
