Tree density compared with the neighbouring buurten
The buurten in wijk Haarlemmerbuurt
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? Made in 1832: The island appeared when the Westerdoksdam closed off this part of the IJ, ending the tides here.
Our proposal for this neighborhood: Low tree density compared with the rest of the city: planting street trees would add the most shade here.
Our own suggestion, not a municipal plan - no source exists for what still ought to be built.
