Pacheco building

The Pacheco building sits along Boulevard Pacheco, joining the upper and lower parts of Brussels with its location near the inner ring road. It holds office spaces, shared living areas, and restaurants alongside retail shops all within the same structure.

The building was first built in 1976 to house the Royal Belgian Mint facility. Later it was redesigned to include spaces for education and research activities.

The building marks a shift in how Brussels uses its older industrial spaces, now serving workers, diners, and shoppers instead of just one function. This change reflects how the city transforms neighborhoods by mixing offices, food, and retail under one roof.

The building sits near public transportation and is easy to reach from various parts of the city. Note that peak hours can bring crowds, particularly around midday when office workers and diners arrive.

The renovated building includes dedicated charging stations for bicycle batteries and electric vehicle terminals. These features show how the place supports modern, cleaner ways of getting around.
