The City of Brussels has launched the Under-Jonction Project, aiming to rehabilitate the spaces located beneath the railway lines of the North-Midi Junction, near Bruxelles-Chapelle station, to create a venue for socio-cultural activities.

This project intends to transform these premises into a space open to all audiences and generations, offering a diverse program. This will include concerts, exhibitions, workshops, meetings, and other cultural and participatory events. The initiative is a continuation of the Sustainable Neighbourhood Contract Jonction 2014-2018, a collaboration between the Brussels-Capital Region and the City of Brussels.
The goal is to turn the North-Midi Junction, once an urban rupture point, into a true articulation element by activating the spaces beneath the railway viaduct. The project aims to add value to its urban and social environment through its architectural qualities, while contributing to the neighbourhood's identity and 'well-being'.
This project aligns with several ambitions: promoting the management of communal public spaces by civil society, combating property vacancy, and meeting the needs for local facilities and services. It serves as a driver for urban revitalization, connecting with the area's history and unique geographical location.
