In this ambitious Open Call, the Citadel Park is put on the map as a new pole in the city. The Floralies Hall plays a crucial role in this as a dynamic and cross-pollinating space between surrounding public players, the ICC, the Kuipke, the Smak and the Casino. With the programming of the casino as the local Hub, the surrounding area gets its foot in the park between the major public players the Smack, the Kuipke and the ICC.

The Floralienhal will be a covered green space in the extension of the park. The ICC will be reorganised and expanded. The Floralienhal will be restored and furnished as a public space.
