The image displays a wide-angle, elevated view of a multi-lane urban thoroughfare in the European Quarter of Brussels, Belgium, under a clear blue sky. The scene is illuminated by natural sunlight, suggesting either morning or late afternoon. On the left, a large, multi-story modern office building is prominent, characterized by a brown/bronze-toned gridded facade that reflects the sunlight. This structure features a distinctive flat, gridded roof overhang. European Union flags are visible at ground level near its base. This building is consistent with structures within the European Parliament complex. On the right, another large, modern office building, identifiable as the Berlaymont building (headquarters of the European Commission), exhibits a lighter, highly reflective gridded glass facade. Portions of this building are in shadow. In the mid-ground and extending into the background, a series of other contemporary office buildings with glass facades line the street. Several construction cranes are discernible in the far distance, indicating ongoing development. The perspective is from an elevated position, likely a bridge or overpass, indicated by a dark, metallic railing in the foreground. Below, a wide, multi-lane road (possibly Rue de la Loi or a parallel artery) extends linearly into the distance. Vehicle traffic, consisting primarily of cars, is present on the road, with multiple vehicles visible in both directions. Brake lights are illuminated on several vehicles further down the road. No individuals are clearly discernible on foot.
