Great news! As part of the consortium Alheembouw – BAM PPP PGGM Infrastructure Coöperatie U.A. – in short “ABC 02” – we have been selected as “Preferred Bidder” for the development of the Egied van Broeckhoven School in Molenbeek for vzw Ignatius Scholen in Beweging. It is the first project with a actual face within a large-scale DBFM program of the Flemish Government, which will construct 40 school projects through public-private partnerships.
The Egied van Broeckhovenschool will be a new Dutch-language school that will offer a renewed secondary education in the multicultural neighborhood around the Weststation in Molenbeek-Saint-Jean, focused on the domains STEM and Society and Welfare. The new infrastructure allows for a wide range of classrooms and outdoor spaces that can be used in different ways, making the project the link between the learning landscape and the nearby environment and society. The school will be located in the buildings of the former Vandenheuvel brewery, with which the school will literally nestle in the existing urban fabric. After all, the conversion of the bottling plant into an innovative learning environment also means that smart thinking is given to the reuse of materials and energy, which is in line with the sustainable and innovative character of this pedagogical project.
In addition to B2Ai architects, the consortium consists of Alheembouw, VK Architects & Engineers, vzw Ignatische Scholen in Beweging, BAM PPP PGGM Infrastructure Coöperatie U.A. and BAM FM.
