    At the height of the Koning Albertstraat, the bronze artwork 'Horsepower' by artist Jan Desmarets was unveiled on September 30, 2000, in the presence of ships Carlo Gysens, wnd. Mayor Herman Reynders and Minister Vice-President Steve Stevaert.

    It was the urban commission for plastic arts that organized a competition for a monumental statue to be placed on the corner of Guffenslaan and Koning Albertstraat. However, after numerous submissions, not a single proposal was retained by the jury. That is why the committee recommended commissioning Jean Desmarets, an artist from Sint-Martens-Latem.
