One of the things we missed when last
in Antwerp was a (then) suburban area near Berchem station that is
noted for its Art Nouveau and other residences. Cogels-Osy and
Waterloo are the two main streets, although there are others, and we
spent several hours walking and gawking and taking pix. 240 pix.
Reducing these to one post has been extremely painful.

| Cogels-Osy Straat |
 |
| Not everything was Art Nouveau |
 |
| !!! |
 |
| So I'll post just the ones we liked best |
 |
| Sometimes without caption |
 |
Our over-all favorite, the one with the over-sized
port-hole (I'm sure there's name for this) |
 |
| Thus |
 |
| And thus |
 |
| And thus |
 |
| Moving right along to Waterloo Straat |
 |
| So far as we could tell, real people live here |
 |
| Another favorite |
 |
| And another |
 |
| Four of these, the Four Seasons, at four corners |
 |
| Another favorite, the Waterloo House |
 |
| Thus, Wellington and Bonaparte |
 |
| Yet another street: next time |
 |
| !!! |
 |
| Not Art Nouveau, but interesting nonetheless |
