Tree density compared with the neighbouring buurten
The buurten in Oud-Noord
Tree density index per buurt: the real number of registered trees divided by land area, rescaled against the city average. Not measured canopy cover.
Did you know? Garden Villages: Famous for garden villages like the Van der Pekbuurt, built for working-class families. (fact about Oud-Noord)
Our proposal for this neighborhood: This buurt sits at or above the city average: the task is holding on to what is there as it densifies further.
Our own suggestion, not a municipal plan - no source exists for what still ought to be built.
