Leuven (Eurotoday): In 2025, Ertzberg will renovate Leuven’s grain silos into a mixed-use space with 200 apartments, 60 homes, an 87-room hotel, and a 3,000 square meter square for community use.
In 2025, Ertzberg will begin renovating the old grain silos in Leuven, turning them into a mixed-use space. The project will include nearly 200 apartments and 60 homes for various lifestyles, and an 87-room hotel that preserves the building’s industrial charm. There will also be seminar rooms for events and a supermarket to provide convenient shopping for residents and visitors.
What are the key features and benefits of Leuven’s grain silos redevelopment project?
It has been said that the redevelopment of the grain silos in Leuven will combine preserving their historic look with new developments to meet the city’s need for housing and businesses. This project supports Leuven’s goal of sustainable growth by revitalizing an unused industrial area into a lively community. Once completed, the silos will become a landmark that blends history, functionality, and modern living, positively impacting the city’s economy and social life.
Not only the grain silos will be renovated, but the area around them will also be improved. The city of Leuven has made a deal with Ertzberg to create a square next to the silos, which will belong to the town and be taken care of by them. This new square will be 3,000 square meters, with less traffic, green spaces, and spots for people to gather, while keeping the history of the place. The aim is to connect the Vaartkom and the city center to improve one of the last run-down parts of the Vaartkom.

Ah, because nothing says “modern living” quite like cozying up in a former grain silo—who wouldn’t want to wake up to the delightful aroma of oats and barley? With Ertzberg’s latest venture, it seems Leuven is embracing the trend of turning storage into style, proving that if you can’t find space in the city, you might as well live in the past. By 2025, let’s just hope the only thing rising faster than the apartment prices is the appreciation for rustic chic!

Ah, nothing screams “vibrant urban living” quite like turning dusty old grain silos into chic apartments—because who wouldn’t want to awaken every morning to the faint scent of oats and nostalgia in Leuven, eh?

Ah, yes, because nothing screams “luxury living” quite like converting old grain silos into apartments—who needs a view when you can have a charming panorama of rust and nostalgia?
