Neighbourhoods
The Zuidas district is divided into 12 neighbourhoods, each with its own distinct character. In some neighbourhoods, the focus is on living, in others on working. Some neighbourhoods are already "finished," while others will take shape in the coming years. And while greenery and water are paramount in one neighbourhood, another is characterized by high building density.

Verdi
Verdi is the most western neighbourhood of Zuidas. With 60 hectares (about 90 football fields), this neighbourhood offers plenty of space for (water) recreation, nature, and sports.
Fred. Roeske
The Fred. Roeske neighbourhood has developed from an office area into a mixed-use neighborhood with offices, homes, schools, and amenities for every stage of life.
Parnas
The Parnas neighbourhood, between Fred. Roeskestraat and Parnassusweg, has two eye-catchers: the New Courthouse and, in the old courthouse, the Hartwig Museum, which will open its doors in 2028.
Strawinsky
This neighbourhood forms the transition between the busy station area and Amsterdam Zuid. Here you'll find some of the oldest buildings in the Zuidas district, some of which have been renovated into offices.
Beethoven
Beethoven is perhaps the greenest neighbourhood in Zuidas. It boasts offices, a secondary school, a municipal monument, and in the coming years homes will be developed.
RAI
The RAI district consists mainly of the RAI complex, surrounded by the Scheldeplein, the Europaplein, the Europaboulevard and the Nhow Amsterdam RAI hotel.
Kop Zuidas
Kop Zuidas is the most eastern neighbourhood of Zuidas and flows into Rivierenbuurt. It is a small-scale, mixed, and green residential area, with Hogelandplein at its heart.

Ravel
Ravel will be a low-traffic, green, and mixed-use residential neighbourhood with a focus on families. Relaxing, socializing, exercising, and playing are central to the plan for this neighbourhood.
Mahler
Mahler is located in the heart of the Zuidas district. One of the best-known and busiest spots in this neighbourhood is Gustav Mahlerplein, which borders Amsterdam Zuid station.
