Save the Sanatorium J. Lemaire, Tombeek (Belgium)

On the 30th of September 1937 the sanitarium, designed by Maxime Brunfaut, was opened under international interest. La Prévoyance Sociale, who gave the assignment, had bought a building site 19 km south of Brussels. The modernistic building first served as a sanitarium for tbc patients, then as a nursing home. When the sanitarium was closed down in 1987, 50 years after its grand opening, it faced an uncertain future.

Now in 2007, after 20 years of vacancy, not much is left of the glory of the building that opened 70 years ago.

Please feel free to add your pictures of this interesting building to this group.
