Sint-Niklaas
Sint-Niklaas — from Mgr. Stillemansstraat to Koningin Elisabethlaan
In Sint-Niklaas, this route brings together twelve buildings from 1927 to 1935, seven of them by August Waterschoot, his son Leander or Raphaël Waterschoot. It starts at two houses on Mgr. Stillemansstraat protected as monuments since 2002, H. Faems’s Claus house (1935) and the Ghijs house (1931), then passes, on Walburgstraat, Charles Hoge’s Van Naemen house (1927) and a house by August Waterschoot (1930). It then goes past Marc Neerman’s former Tuypens pharmacy (1929), protected since 2012, which the inventory describes as expressionist brick architecture very close to the Amsterdam School, and houses by August and Leander Waterschoot on Stationsstraat (1929) and Prins Leopoldplein (1928). It ends on Koningin Elisabethlaan, with three works by Raphaël Waterschoot (1931-1932), including the Bulteel house and the four houses built for the same manufacturer, the house of the sculptor Robert Van de Velde by Hilaire De Boom (1931) and a house by Marc Neerman (1928).
