Description

“Recypark is situated on a challenging triangular plot along the canal, wherethe Brussels waste management company sought to build a new facility. The designers not only met this demand but went further by sourcing a deconstructed riding hall near Liège to reuse its structure as the foundation for the new design. The remaining space was creatively transformed into a skatepark.” -The Architecture of Reuse in Brussels
