# Spaces Tour & Taxis

Gare Maritime is one of the most unusual buildings in which to rent an office in Belgium. It is a former goods station at Tour & Taxis, built around the turn of the twentieth century with a glass and wrought-iron frame, and its conversion into a workplace keeps the old structure visible while adding modern rooms inside. The Spaces centre at Rue Picard 7 describes itself as a blend of old and new, and the setting is the reason many people choose it: working under a historic iron roof feels more like joining a neighbourhood than entering an office block.

Tour & Taxis itself is a whole campus on the northern edge of the city centre, close to the canal. Beyond the offices there are residential buildings, restaurants and shops, parks, a day nursery and the exhibition and trade centre that shares the site. The operator names a nearby Lidl supermarket and the Italian restaurant La Fabbrica among the everyday options, and mentions the Magasin 4 concert hall and the Barlok live music venue as nearby evening choices. That means lunch, shopping and a drink after work are possible without leaving the district.

The centre is built for a community: designer offices, shared lounges and meeting rooms, 24-hour access, fast Wi-Fi and administrative support throughout the working day. Lounge areas are the listed amenity here, so expect a social atmosphere with room to work privately or in a group. Spaces tends to attract entrepreneurs from different countries, creative businesses, consultants and start-ups, and the mix at Gare Maritime is described as international.

Getting here is straightforward. The operator speaks of bus, rail and tram lines serving the site, and Brussels-North is the nearest main railway station, with the canal and the city centre close at hand. For visitors, the Tour & Taxis site is well signed, and its size means arrival feels like going to a destination rather than a street address.

Who should look? Founders and small teams who want energy around them rather than a quiet corridor. Creative studios and design businesses that benefit from an inspiring address when clients visit. Consultants and freelancers who want a membership with the option of a private office later. International companies that need a landing place in Brussels and like the idea of meeting other entrepreneurs in the building.

A few practical observations help to picture daily life here. Because the hall is so large, noise is spread over a generous volume, and the designer offices give teams a place to close the door when a call needs privacy. The campus setting means that parking, deliveries and visitors are handled on a site built for large numbers of people, which is different from squeezing into a narrow street in the old town. Evening events at the neighbouring concert hall and live music venue give the district a pulse after office hours, and the surrounding parkland offers a place to walk between sessions. For founders who value atmosphere as part of their employer brand, an address like this is a recruiting tool as well as a workplace. If you are weighing it against a classic office tower, visit at midday: the hall, the campus and the people in the lounges tell you more about the culture than a brochure. Teams that thrive here usually like meeting neighbours, sharing ideas over coffee and having events a few steps from their desk.

Share your team size, whether you prefer an open desk or a private office, and when you want to start, and we will ask the centre for current availability and terms. A visit shows the scale of the hall better than any description.
