This very first issue of the series of A+ special editions is dedicated to the capital city of Brussels.
A+278 is an issue in which architecture and urban transformation take centre stage as powerful political instruments by which to improve social cohesion, quality of life and prosperity in the contemporary city. This publication examines a number of exemplary projects that can inspire urban development across Europe: Gare Maritime, Place Rogier, the new buildings of the VRT and RTBF, the museum Kanal – Centre Pompidou and the conversion of the WTC towers. Brussels as a laboratory for the future European city.
