Did you know? Timber Ports as Names: Archangel, Haparanda, Karlskrona, Libau, Memel, Narva, Reval, Stavanger, Stettin, Wiborg - streets and islets named for foreign ports north of the Netherlands.
Our proposal for this neighborhood: The green that exists here is almost entirely landscaped: ecological verge management and flowering edges are the first gain.
Our own suggestion, not a municipal plan - no source exists for what still ought to be built.
