Euroclear Operation Centre

The Euroclear Operation Centre is a 17-story office tower rising 80 meters (262 feet) in the Saint-Josse-ten-Noode district of Brussels. Its facade combines glass and steel in contemporary architectural forms that define the modern skyline.

Completed in 1997, this tower was designed through a partnership between atelier d'Architecture de Genval and ELD partnership. It emerged during a period when Brussels was establishing itself as a contemporary financial center in Europe.

The building operates as a hub for European securities transactions and international financial operations that many travelers passing through Brussels may not realize are happening inside. This function shapes how the space is used and organized by those working within it.

The tower sits near major transportation hubs and is easily accessible by public transit connections in the area. As an active business building, visitors can view it from outside but should note it is not open to casual tourism.

The tower's design set new standards for office architecture in Brussels during the late 1990s with its bold use of glass and steel. Few visitors realize how influential this building was in shaping the modern commercial districts that surround it.
