Old and new

Slowly but steadily, the old apartment blocks are disappearing. Nieuwendam North is being demolished.



This morning again a couple of houses had disappeared. The neighborhood is under reconstruction.



The kids from the neigborhood rhythmically livened up the ceremonial opening of the new school building. The first new school in the neighorhood, the Ms Bekkerschool has now officially been opened.



This winter, the Amstelmeerschool will have to move to another temporary location, Parnassia. Our school buildings will also be demolished, only for a brilliant, new building to rise again on the same location, with a fantastic new schoolyard.
