The website canal.brussels is the showcase for:
• the Canal Plan of the Brussels-Capital Region, which aims to revitalise the central districts of Brussels, located along the waterway, by using the potential of public land, building housing and stimulating a new economic dynamism. At the same time, urban integration and density and a diverse functional and social mix are all being fostered;
• and, more generally, all developments in the districts of the Canal Area. These districts, with their mosaic of people, landscapes and activities, form a rich and varied entity that is constantly changing. They have many assets and abundant potential in terms of people, land, businesses, the heritage, culture, leisure, tourism and so on. They have been on the rise over the past few years, with the development of numerous public, private and mixed initiatives in various fields.
The website canal.brussels is managed by the Urban Development Corporation (SAU-MSI) of the Brussels-Capital Region.
It succeeds the Bru+ site, created in 2011 by the Urban Development Agency (ADT-ATO) and funded until the end of 2015 by the European Union and the Brussels-Capital Region within the framework of the ERDF Funding Programme in Brussels for the period 2007-2013(2015).
