Housing Eerste Stationsstraat 185

Vernède Park and Paltelaan area vision.

The municipality announced in August 2023 that it will create an area vision for Mayor Vernède Park and the area around Paltelaan. Everyone can have a say in the future of the area. The area vision (this is now officially called an environmental program) will also look at what can be done with the office building at Eerste Stationsstraat 185. Follow the making of the area vision at Area Vision Vernède Park and Paltelaan.

What preceded it?

In 2021, Arthur Armstrong presented a building plan for the Eerste Stationsstraat 185 site. Local residents were able to respond. At the documents below you will find the reports of the participation process. After the participation, the conclusion was that the plan is not feasible at this location. The municipality and the initiator therefore entered into discussions about the continuation of the project. During these talks, the city council commissioned a vision for Vernède Park and Paltelaan. Since Eerste Stationsstraat 185 is directly adjacent to Vernède Park, the municipality and the initiator came to the conclusion that the redevelopment of Eerste Stationsstraat 185 should be considered in conjunction with the creation of the vision for Vernède Park and surrounding Paltelaan.

How does it go from here?

The environmental program will include basic principles and frameworks that a building plan for the Eerste Stationsstraat 185 must meet. With these basic principles, the developer has already presented 2 urban design models on September 24, 2024 (see presentation attached to the documents below). When the environmental program is adopted, the City Council will be proposed to withdraw the 2019 plot passport. Arthur Armstrong can proceed with a modified building plan after the environs program is adopted.
