View the new shopping center Nieuw-Sloten
In order to prepare the Nieuw-Sloten shopping center on Belgiëplein for the next 30 years, we are going to redo the area around the shopping centre. A preliminary design has been made based on the wishes and ideas of residents and shopkeepers. Are you curious? We are happy to show you.
You can download the preliminary design. Would you like to receive detailed information in the form of a digital booklet? Send an email to [email protected].
What will change in the square?
The shopping center includes extra trees and plants, benches, more bicycle parking spaces and a water playground. We also make it safer for cyclists and pedestrians. In this way, we want to make the square a green and cozy place where residents and daily shopping can be done and where they can meet.
Walk-in meeting 7 July well attended
Residents, entrepreneurs and visitors of the Nieuw-Sloten shopping center could already see the new design on Thursday 7 July. The interest was great during the evening. Fewer 70 people viewed the plans in De Mijlpaal primary school. These were divided over 7 panels. One with sample photos of the material, another with the new plans for the greenery, etc. The project team talked to all interested parties and answered as many questions as possible. In addition, residents could give their latest ideas.
Enthusiastic reactions
The team received many enthusiastic responses to the plans for the shopping center and the organization of the walk-in meeting. For example, resident Cees Fisser said: “Admiration for the great work that went into the presentation. Lots of detail ‘panels’ with sample photos to visualize and one collection table with post-its for the last afterburners.”
Together with residents and entrepreneurs
The design that is there now was made with the help of residents and entrepreneurs. From 2020, wishes and ideas have been collected at various times. As many of these as possible have been included in the design. We use the responses during the walk-in meeting to further improve the elaborations. We hope to have the final design ready by the end of 2022.
On the project page of the Nieuw-Sloten shopping center we will keep you informed of all the steps for the refurbishment.
