Most people who think they know the Port of Brussels are picturing about two hundred metres of it: the marina at Pont Van Praet, maybe a barge or two. The Port actually runs fourteen kilometres through the city, carrying more of Brussels' daily life than almost anyone realises.
Visages du Port, later reworked into today's magazine, was built to close that gap, not with statistics but with faces: the people who load the barges, run the warehouses, keep fourteen kilometres of infrastructure working while the city drives past without looking.
Five editions in, alongside a companion website built with Bien à Vous, the magazine has become less a communications tool than a slow, ongoing introduction. Proof that a port becomes memorable the moment it stops being a backdrop and starts having a face.
