In the Marolles, two buildings were demolished for safety reasons after a deadly fire raged in 2019. These are two buildings that used to house two catering establishments: La Grenouille Bleue, at Cellebroersstraat 97, and Les 2 Riad, on the corner of Hoogstraat and Cellebroersstraat. The catering establishments have been closed for several years, and at least one of the two buildings was squatted.
