Immeuble Art déco, avenue Jean Volders 56

Art Deco building constructed in 1923 to plans by the architect Jules Smekens, with five storeys and two bays. The commercial ground floor is rendered and pierced by a carriage entrance, while the upper floors are faced with green sandstone rubble. Two curved oriels in white imitation stone run over the first three upper floors; opened by triplets under segmental arches, they are decorated with floral reliefs between each level and carry a large continuous balcony in front of the top floor. The top floor has two wide basket-handle arched windows alternating red brick and white imitation-stone voussoirs. The building is recorded in the inventory of architectural heritage.
