Two studios must have been running concurrently at different ends of the Meir for several years. Buyle entrusted the running of the Antwerp operation to his brother in law Arthur De Maeyer in 1902. The 1913 Monod directory still listed no. 6 but we have no corroborating sources. Buyle was still recorded at no. 129 in the 1937 population register.

The studio at this address was listed as a branch of Ferdinand Buyle from 1903 to 1909 in the Ratinckx Directory, but seems to have traded under the name "Frantz" (see that name) throughout this period. Ferdinand Buyle requested a building permit at this address on 24.9.1901, but it was in fact his brother Gustave (see that name) who lived at this address on and off at the time.
1909 * - 1914 > Bruxelles, Boulevard du Jardin Botanique, 48a<10-13>, 58<13> or 57a<14>
Announced the transfer of his studio from Marché aux Herbes, 104 to "Porte de Schaerbeek, corner of Boulevard Botanique" on 14.11.1909. "Main branch". Initial "A." in the 1910 Mertens directory. At this address "looking for young female apprentices" (undefined, 18.2.1910). Still operating at this address throughout the interwar years as one of the most exclusive portrait studios in Belgium.
