Up to 70.000 homes
In some areas, construction of homes may only commence from 2029 onwards, but in Sloterdijk, the development of Haven-Stad has already begun. Haven-Stad encompasses the current industrial area between Sloterdijk, Westerpark, and in the north, the Cornelis Douwesterrein and the Noorder IJ-plas. Throughout Haven-Stad, there is space for 40,000 to 70,000 homes.
Model City
Through the integration of living, working, water, mobility, climate adaptation, sustainability, and energy neutrality, this area serves as a model for numerous spatial challenges. What density will be realized in this program? Which functions can be combined and at what height? How is the water challenge incorporated into the plans? Model City Haven-Stad presents the plans for Haven-Stad but also serves as a model for many other area developments within and outside the Netherlands.
Six Sub-Areas
A large-scale model (1:3000) showcases the area. The adjacent research station focuses on six sub-areas. These models (1:1000) provide a first impression of Hemknoop, Zaanstraat Emplacement, Cornelis Douwesterrein, Docks in Noord, a bridge landing, and the Houtveemloods.
Amsterdam 750
