For more than 20 years, the Belgian architect Francis Metzger, MA2 , has been busy restoring remarkable buildings. Among his completed projects are the Empain mansion, the Solvay Library and the work of Victor Horta such as the Autrique house and Brussels Central station. Other buildings are being restored such as the Astoria hotel and the Brussels Palais de Justice [law courts]. All these projects are part of the history of architecture and have gone through a dark period. These major works have over the years lost their identity. Some of them have almost disappeared.
