Slipping through time, let’s journey to the Rue du Remblai. It’s nestled in Brussels, between the Rue des Ménages and the bustling Boulevard du Midi. Rue du Remblai follows a gentle, elbow-shaped slope, intersected by the Rue Blaes. Its birth, around 1835, is tied to the construction of the Boulevard du Midi. Now, picture the Rue du Remblai in the late 19th century. The even-numbered side is a parade of single and multi-family homes, mainly from the second and third quarters of the 1800s. Many are twinned, creating a harmonious rhythm along the street. This mix of buildings, while somewhat ordinary, forms a striking contrast to the imposing rear facades of the Hospice des Aveugles. The hospice overlooks the odd-numbered side of Rue du Remblai from its prominent position on Boulevard du Midi. This blend of everyday residences and a grand institution gives Rue du Remblai a unique character. It’s a quiet reminder of the diverse lives lived within a single city block.
