Description
- -The Westerpark municipal district council decided to develop the former municipal water board terrain (GWL terrain) in Amsterdam into a residential area in 1989.
- The complex was to be a car-free, environmentally friendly residential area.

- The complex includes properties for both renting and buying, with the emphasis on larger houses for families.
- There are generous outdoor spaces, apartments with roof gardens, private gardens for the ground floor properties and a green public space intended not only for the residents, but also for those living in the densely built adjacent neighbourhoods.
- 6 ha, 1,400 inhabitants, 230 persons/ha, 600 residential units
- Distance from City Center: 3 km
- Cars: 190 cars/1,000 residents. Parking Spaces/Residence: 0.20. Non-motorized Mode Share: 80%. Public Transport Mode Share: 14%. Households with Carsharing: 26%
