Tour & Taxis Pond
Park Tour & Taxis is the largest urban park to be developed in the central area of Brussels in over a century. It provides a much-needed recreational space for the surrounding neighbourhoods. To further upgrade the park, it was decided to create a large pond. This pond will soon form the centrepiece of the green axis through Tour & Taxis. The shape was determined by the topography of the area, leading to a pond divided into 3 levels each connected by a waterfall.
