The VU Research Building in De Boelelaan was completed in early 2024. It is an extraordinary building and the reason why only really becomes clear when you look inside it. ‘Even the tiniest vibrations and temperature differences can have an effect on measurements.’
On 16, 17 and 18 April 2024, we have closed off one of the two southern access tunnels of the Minervapassage. We are doing this in order to gain an impression of what will happen when the passageway is partially closed for a longer period from mid-2025.
The digging of the second passenger tunnel at Amsterdam Zuid station, the Brittenpassage, is now three-quarters of the way towards completion. Concrete trucks are currently in the process of creating a crawlspace. They are also preparing the foundations for the pillars that will support the roof of the passageway.
Alongside the 216 starter homes in Stepstone, Ceci is being built, a complex of 25 private sector apartments with a minimum size of 70 square metres. There will be commercial amenities on the ground floor. Ceci is scheduled for completion by the end of 2026.
In 2024, the reconstruction of the De Nieuwe Meer junction is set to start after a long period of preparation. At two walk-in meetings on Wednesday 13 March, we will give you an idea of the works you can expect in the years ahead and the related disruption.
At the start of March 2024, we will be removing trees and bushes at three locations around the De Nieuwe Meer junction. This will create space for work sites and access roads for construction. Ultimately, this will also enable the widening of the A10 Zuid. Cyclists will face some temporary disruption.
The completion of PI59, in Prinses Irenestraat, is in sight. In less than two years, the contractor has transformed the building from a brutalist bunker to an ultramodern Philips headquarters. It is a truly amazing transformation.
On the so-called ‘de Boog‘ plot, construction work has started on The CubeHouse. This will be the new head offices of BNP Paribas Nederland and Arcadis. Remarkably, this office tower, developed by G&S&, will mostly be made out of wood.
The broad contours of the second passageway at Amsterdam Zuid station became visible. The existing passageway was also renovated. Numerous construction projects were completed. We also put together a great summer party. All of that – and much more – was 2023 in Zuidas.
All kinds of things are happening at the same time on the south side of Amsterdam. We are interested in hearing your views about it and what you think about the way we keep you updated. That's why we kindly request 10 minutes of your time to fill out a survey on this.
The accommodation of around 100 Ukrainian refugees in Kapel & Convict will not begin until April 2024, three months later than planned. Because the location is part of the so-called Main Green Space Infrastructure ('Hoofdgroenstructuur'), the renovation work required explicit approval from Amsterdam City Council.
Starting in the summer of 2024, we will set to work on a complex logistical puzzle around the De Nieuwe Meer interchange. In order to reconstruct the interchange, we want to be able to supply the work sites safely and with minimum possible disruption. So, how do we plan to do this?
