“"I am pleased that with this new design, we can make a long-awaited fresh start with this beautiful project for Borgerhout! This design will build on the guiding principles developed together with the neighbourhood. The focus will remain on more greenery, space for meeting, play and relaxation, climate adaptation, and a qualitative connection with Moorkensplein."
“"The fact that the Moorkensplein neighbourhood park is getting bigger is the direct result of a clear and explicit request from the district of Borgerhout. As the district board, we have insisted from the beginning on relocating the planned new construction, with one clear goal: a fully-fledged Reuzenpark. We have consistently put this ambition on the table and are therefore very pleased that we are finally taking concrete steps. In a densely built-up district like Borgerhout, extra green and public space is not a luxury, but a necessity. With the Reuzenpark, we are giving the neighbourhood the breathing room it deserves and investing in a greener, more liveable, and more pleasant Borgerhout for everyone."
