Official kickoff parking building het Getouw
On 22 March, the official starting signal for the construction of the new parking tower was given at the Bloemekenswijk in Ghent. Aldermen Filip Watteeuw and Sami Souguir were present during the placement of the first column and accompanied it to its proper place.
Now that the earthworks are behind us, our team is starting the construction of "Het Getouw," a parking building with a capacity of 392 parking spaces. The parking lot is intended to reduce parking pressure in the surrounding residential neighbourhood.
It will be a simple and uncluttered building because of its clean concrete architecture and CORTEN steel accents. The façade structure will guide climbing plants and eventually serve as a green, sometimes floral façade.
According to the current schedule, Ghent should have a parking building by June 2022!
