Sign pointing to the Chappelle Ste Rita, aka H. Rita Kapel, Chapel of St Rita. This fascinating little church is tucked away in one of the storefronts behind scaffolding in a corner of the Rogier Metro station in Brussels. it's a real, functioning Catholic chapel in a subway station, complete with candles, a tabernacle, saints and crucifixes and several Masses per week.

Dexia 3
Made by plαdys
This lightshow thing on buildings is becoming quite popular in and around brussels. At first, the cooling tower in Drogenbos, then the Atomium, we've seen the Madou tower lit up by an artist for a while, and now we have the Dexia tower as a massive lightshow. It's massive and takes up a major part of the view of place Brouckère when heading north.

The demolotion works on the place roger has been started. The big question is: what will they build here? And the answer is...a big roof above the square, between the dexia tower and, almost, rue neuve...

premetro
Made by brapps
In Brussels city centre, the trams that once ran along the street drop underground. The stations are built so that in the future they can be converted for Metro train style operation. Hence premetro.

Ich war ja schon beeindruckt, als es losging, die Polizei sich versammelte und ihre Hubschrauber kreisen ließ, und die ersten Parolen skandiert wurden...
