Covent Garden, Modern skyscraper in Northern Quarter, Brussels, Belgium
Covent Garden is a modern skyscraper with 26 floors in Northern Brussels, connecting two separate blocks through a large atrium. The structure features glass facades and provides extensive office spaces with integrated green areas throughout.
The building was completed in 2013 after five years of construction, marking an important step in the modernization of Brussels' Northern Quarter. This completion permanently shaped the appearance and use of the area.
The name Covent Garden recalls the site's former garden use, and today's design with planted areas preserves this connection to nature. Visitors can experience this relationship in the public spaces and integrated greenery throughout the complex.
The building sits at Place Rogier 16 and is easily accessible by public transport and on foot. The public areas are open and offer clear navigation for visitors exploring the modern spaces.
The complex uses a biological filtering system with plants to treat and reuse 95 percent of its water on site. This system operates within the central atrium and demonstrates how contemporary architecture can embed sustainable solutions into daily operations.
