Forum
Ghent

This former industrial site of 4.5 ha is situated at a top location by a meander of the Scheldt, close to the Gent-Sint-Pieters railway station and the entrance and exit roads at Ghent University Hospital (UZ Ghent). Forum is a unique place in the city where living and working in a green environment is made possible. Shared facilities, parks and street furniture create the community feel that characterise this vibrant neighbourhood.
