Projet
AP178.S1.1985.PR01
Description:
This project series documents the Van der Vennepark, Schilderswijk-west in The Hague, The Netherlands. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 32/80. The office assigned the date 1985 to this project. This small park was designed in connection to the housing and shopping complex in Schilderswijk (see project series AP178.S1.1984.PR03 in this fonds) as part of an urban renewal program in The Hague. Siza also designed the urban plan for Deelgebied Zone 5, Schilderswijk-West and the Punt en Komma social housing for the same urban renewal program. He would later design the residential settlement in Schilderswijk [Plano de Doedijnstraat]. The project was not realized. The project series contains a small amount of material. Documenting the park are plans and details, including reprographic copies, for seating arrangements, ramps, a pedestrian exit, as well as reprographic copies showing the housing and shopping complex in relation to the park. Also included is a written description of the project. This project series also contains information related to the housing and shopping complex.
