The perimeter of the study includes the area between the Allée verte (West), the angle of the Rue Masui and the Chaussée d'Anvers (South), the Rue des Palais (North) and the municipal limit with Schaerbeek (East).

The City of Brussels, the Brussels-Capital Region and the Federal Mobility and Transport service will invest about 25 million euro, during a period of 4 years, in the renovation of this Northern part of Brussels.

Masui projects

The district contract Masui is going to develop projects in the following domains:

• renovation of existing housing with the standard 'very low energy'
• creation of new housing with the 'passive' standard
• reorganization of public places and creation of green spaces
• creation of equipments with priority given to childhood
• creation of productive and commercial spaces
• launch of a project of high environmental quality
• implementation of economic, social and participative initiatives

On 11 March 2010, the research department Karbon was appointed by the College to establish:

• the diagnosis of the existing situation
• define priorities of intervention
• realize a programme of urban revitalization

Participation inhabitants

The elaboration of this programme is based on a participative process which associates the inhabitants and the associations through the creation of a district committee, the organization of numerous general assemblies and working groups. Numerous meetings were already organized and will still be organized in the months to come.

In the course of September 2010, the project will be subjected to public inquiry and the opinion of the Consultation Committee. It will be adopted, then, by the College and the Council and will be passed on, finally, to the Brussels Region for approval.

The execution of the district contract will start in January 2011.
