Immeubles à appartements Art déco, avenue Milcamps 145 et avenue du Diamant 94

Pair of Art Deco apartment buildings designed by the architect René Cornil in 1929, on the corner of avenue Milcamps and avenue du Diamant. The buildings share a single orange-brick façade, enhanced with white imitation stone and white stone, of seven storeys beneath a pseudo-mansard and flat roof, punctuated by trapezoidal oriels. A continuous projecting band underlines the sixth storey, beneath a deeply projecting cornice. The corner bay is marked by a curved oriel beneath a terrace, in front of a bell-gabled dormer pierced by a triplet. The glazed wrought-iron doors beneath canopies remain; the ensemble is recorded in the inventory.
