Avenue des Arts
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia

" At the end of the Avenue des Arts, to the right, stands the National Bank with its round corner-turrets, designed by Beyart, who has employed the Flemish Renaissance style in this case also. The architectural details are admirably executed. In time of war the building is intended to serve as the depository of the national treasury . In front of the bank is a fountain. Behind it is the Place Léopold."--Belgium and Holland: Handbook for Travellers (1891) by Baedeker |
