Commissioned by The Royal Institute of Dutch Architects (BNA), in consultation with the Rijkswaterstraat and Amsterdam City Council, a multidisciplinary team consisting of UNStudio (architects/urban designers), Goudappel Coffeng (mobility consultants), GeoPhy (data specialists) and 2getthere (automated transit systems) has collaborated on a study that examines the future potential of the integration of infrastructure and city development around the area of Amsterdam’s A10 ring road and the Leylaan area.

The proposal, which focuses on five new areas in and around the Lelyaan/A10 intersection, will result in the introduction of 8,400 new residential units, in a total built area of 750,000 sq m and a minimum added value of 370m Euro in revenue. The proposal also includes a flexible phasing model that allows development to start today, while anticipating any future market fluctuations.
