1960s - Amsterdam ArenA

Ideas 1960s

Industry and offices Monofunctional

Seperated from residential neigh-bourhoods by train tracks

Critique

Slowly becomes multifunctional

Still excluded from adjacent problem area

Together with Schiphol and Zui-das it forms the ‘economic motor’ of Amsterdam

Problem Statement

Weakness: neighbourhood cannot benefit from adjacent opportunities

Threat: this may increase inequality

Visible in segregation, but also in pro-gramme.

Lack of opportunities

(Mumford, Lupton 1999:30)

Overhoeks

Retain the economic vitality, image and attraction.

Create an easy scale jump, from the global to the re-gional to the local scale.

On what aspects should the areas be equal and in-equal?
