Nolensstraat - Amsterdam (Netherlands)

Nolensstraat 06/03/2024 12h44
Since May 2022, I have been monitoring the demolition and reconstruction of these apartments in my native street and it is increasingly looking as if nothing has changed in over 65 years. And that is a compliment to the architect. The 1950's look remained and the apartments are totally new.

The six appartment blocks constructed between 1954 and 1958 in the Nolensstraat have been demolished in the year 2022. The construction of new residential buildings is in full swing during this update. Point of view is the De Savornin Lohmanstraat.

Geuzenveld
Geuzenveld (Garden City Geuzenveld) is a neighborhood in the Western Garden Cities in Amsterdam, in the Dutch province of North Holland. Geuzenveld is bordered on the north by the Haarlemmerweg and on the south by Sportpark Ookmeer. The eastern boundary is the Eendrachtspark and the Geuzeneiland, the western boundary polder De Eendracht. Geuzenveld has two parks: the Eendrachtspark and Park de Kuil.
The neighborhood consists of a mixture of low-rise buildings, porch-level buildings and high-rise buildings and was completed in the late 1950s. In the nineties the neighborhood on the west side was expanded with the De Eendracht neighborhood, on a part of Sportpark De Eendracht.

Geuzenveld was built between 1953 and 1959 in six neighborhoods, each designed by a different architect and each managed by a different housing association. Each neighborhood would have its own primary school, both a public and a Catholic school, and the size of each neighborhood was therefore determined by the number of households that a primary school could fill: 700 to 800. Two still existing public schools are of the type Amsterdam H-school, of which nine were built in total.

In addition to these six neighborhoods, Theodorus Johannes Lammers built a hundred special homes for 'conditionally social' families who were supervised by a home supervisor. The small neighborhood was designated by the residents as "Het Dorp" ("The Village")or "The Red Village and by other Geuzenvelders as" A-Dorp "(where A stands for antisocial). This stigma remained on the village and the residents for at least forty years. A number of studio residences for artists also appeared on the extreme edge of the van Tijenbuurt.

In 1954 the first houses could be taken into use. In Geuzenveld, streets are named after, among other things, 16th century geuzen, after statesmen from the 20th century and from architects from the 19th and 20th centuries.

Since January 1956, bus line 21 has been in charge of the neighborhood. In 1960 bus 19 followed and in 1981 bus 68, replaced by bus 61 in 2012. Geuzenveld has had another tram connection since October 1974, when tram line 13 was extended to Lambertus Zijlplein.

From 1990 to 2010, after the establishment of the boroughs, the district became part of Geuzenveld-Slotermeer. Nowadays it is part of the Nieuw West district.
