Original Note:
The Brussels Palais de Justice was controversial when constructed as it required forced relocations. It inspired the term "schieven architect", an insult. The building has been expensive and difficult to maintain, with scaffolding surrounding it for the last 40 years. https://www.euronews.com/2017/09/18/once-europes-grandest-building-belgiums-palais-de-justice-is-crumbling https://europe-diplomatic.eu/politics/history/a-palace-for-justice-a-never-ending-belgian-story/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palace_of_Justice,_Brussels
