Residential development in Zaandam and The Hague

Overview

Recent urban development projects in the Netherlands focus on residential construction in Zaandam and The Hague. In Zaandam, work is scheduled to begin this November at the Badhuisweg complex on Zaaneiland following the 2024 demolition of the former William Pont office. This project aims to provide 120 social rental units by autumn 2028, including specialized housing for single mothers and elderly Afghans. The development follows the dismissal of legal objections regarding traffic and parking by the Council of State.

In The Hague, the construction of hundreds of homes at the former Haga Hospital site is projected to begin no earlier than 2030. Alderman Kavish Partiman noted that a new development framework is required before the municipality can proceed with the planned senior housing.
