HISTORY WITH CHARACTER
The property is part of the so-called “Plan West,” a large-scale urban expansion plan from the 1920s. The area around Hoofdweg and Mercatorplein was designed as a cohesive whole, featuring wide streets, enclosed residential blocks, and strong attention to architectural design and façades. Mercatorplein, designed by H.P. Berlage, forms the central point of the neighborhood and still gives the area its recognizable structure.

Much of the architecture in De Baarsjes, including this building, was constructed in the Amsterdam School style, recognizable by its detailed craftsmanship and expressive façades. Today, the neighborhood remains a distinctive and cohesive urban environment that is highly sought after.
