该地区位于火车总站东南方向2公里处，以在部分街道上分布的折衷主义建筑而闻名。它就像是一个巨大的展示橱，你可以从里面寻找到任何一种风格房屋。一个世纪以前，生活在这里的富人竞赛般的修建了许多新艺术运动中流行的风格迥异的建筑，而佛兰德人修建的房屋则是巴洛克式或者新文艺复兴式的。屋顶和塔尖看起来像是洋葱头或者女巫的帽子，铁制的阳台，凸出的飘窗，石板砖，彩色玻璃和各式马赛克图案，任何你能想到的建筑里面的名词，都能在这条街上找到它。
This street’s fine examples of Art Nouveau architecture seem all the more valuable for the fact that it was marked for demolition in the 1960s. Now protected, the buildings have been meticulously restored. Take in the impressive, pale facades and see how many architectural details you can spot among swirling balconies and windows, elaborate front doors and gargoyles.
