A brand new lifestyle and creative community is about to be born.

💛In plain language, there’s a new place to take the kids for a stroll. 💛Here’s a snippet from the official website: "Gare Maritime is a pioneering hub that combines unexpected retail, work, and strolling experiences. Located along the canal in the progressive Tour & Taxis district, it’s a destination where every business has an impact. A place for innovation and art to debate and act, aiming to better influence society and accelerate progress. 💛As the bustling heart of the Tour & Taxis community, Gare Maritime blends and matches businesses based on co-creation, food halls, bars, food markets, terraces, and unconventional shops. This extraordinary concept is catalyzing the community. New hotspots and events are fostering a pioneering energy that makes people wonder… The perfect space for innovative cultural events, film or photo shoots, trade shows, expos, product launches, or promotions. Is Gare Maritime becoming Brussels’ new main lifestyle destination? We believe so!" 💛The Maritime Railway Station, built in 1907, once served as a tourist and taxi freight station. After 110 years, it has undergone a complete renovation and transformed into an energy-neutral building. Renewable energy is generated on-site, with geothermal energy providing heat and cold, and solar panels generating electricity, without any fossil fuels used for heating or cooling. 💛There were still quite a few shops that hadn’t opened when I visited, but I believe that when everything is fully operational next year, it will become another trendy landmark.
