Puerto Viejo Urban
Ámsterdam. Holland, 1996
The Dutch landscape team Adriaan Geuze win a competition to design a disused part of the Port of Amsterdam. The proposal would build on a Master Plan to be proposed residential occupancy of the longitudinal surface of the two springs involved.
Ordination define a grid of blocks bounded by water and access roads would be structured with low-rise townhouses. The set would add some taller buildings oriented according to the plans and significant landmarks of the city. The neighborhood has been a success by its relative proximity to downtown and the relative quality of developed architectures.
The proposal should highlight the balance between stocking density and adequate supply of public facilities, together with a high quality of urban space generated.
