As the big stadiums, the Grand'Place will be soon wearing a removable roof. So, our jewel will be protected against bad weather and attacks of urban pollution.
If "Tenue de Soirée" (the direct broadcasting of Michel Drucker from the Grand'Place) presented us an oldish Belgium, it can be really proud to make germinate an innovative plan. In fact, this evening, even it was raining hard over the Brussels paving, viewers of all around the world can take benefit of sublime points of view on the nicest world theater, thanks to the transparent tent which sheltered the broadcasting. Today is not a tent which is implicated but only a roof.
Transparent roof
The transparent roof will be removable for the sunniest days and is conceived on the model which will soon equip the foot stadium of Lille and the most important courts of Wimbledon. The advantages of this implement are naturally numerous: the Ommegang and concerts often spoiled by the rain, the classified buildings blacken by pollution will be better protected. On the side of the confederation Horeca, we are naturally happy to can open the terraces 365 days a year. No deadline is already fixed for the realization of the project but you can soon discover the model.BrusselsLifeDid you like this article?
