De Hallen is a multi-use
complex developed within a derelict tram
depot. Built at the turn of the last
century to house and maintain the city's
fleet of electric trams, this facility fell
into a sorry state before Andre Van Stigt
began to renovate it. The renovation
has preserved and restored many of the
original features of this industrial complex
while creating a vibrant and functional
setting for a variety of retail and service
facilities. Within the walls of the
depot you will find: 3 state of the art
television studios, a brasserie, a
restaurant, the Foodhallen, a movie theatre,
a library, a hotel and a craft center.
