      Yup, we’re an ex-industrial city trying to modernize. It’s hard, so please, be nice and acknowledge the progress instead of dismissing it. I’m not responsible for the choice the older generations did and your post here feels like an insult to me. If you’re old enough and have oriented the choices that were made in your city so that it’s not car oriented, then congratulations on making the good choice. If you’re just lucky to leave in one because your parents made the good choice, then good for you. But please, don’t look at others trying to improve their place from your, or your wife’s high ground. There are places like the one you showed in every urban suburb of any post industrial city.

      I live in Charleroi and agree with the sentiment :D it’s not the same vibe as Liege though, might be even worse…
