Efforts are underway to reinvent Belgium’s most famous “ghost town,” the city of Doel, after the few remaining residents successfully fought off eviction from the nearby Port of Antwerp. The community is turning to graffiti artists to breathe new life into the abandoned streets, hoping that vibrant murals and street art will transform the town into a unique cultural destination. This grassroots initiative aims to attract visitors and rejuvenate the local economy, showcasing how art can play a pivotal role in revitalizing neglected urban areas.
