Corner house, Café Nova, former café of the Jacobs breweries.
The building and the neighbouring houses were made by the architect Jos Chabot.
What is particularly noteworthy here is the magnificent stained glass window that adorns the façade on its rounded part, the rest of the house having undergone significant transformations.
The stained glass window, made of colored and structured glass, is placed on a half-moon metal structure divided into squares.
It represents waiters in old costumes. Note the lady's magnificent checked skirt.
The robust red lettering frames the scene.
The stained glass window has fortunately been well preserved.
