The Commons, multi-generational courts for Almere-Haven

In this way, the healthcare demand can be solved by tackling a number of other challenges in Almere Haven. For example, there is a shortage of housing and employment for young people. Existing family homes and the layout of the neighborhood are dated and therefore less attractive to attract new families - Haven's original target group. There is too much public space and too much greenery that can no longer be maintained by the municipality. Due to the low density of housing, it is not possible to maintain the level of facilities. Buildings and neighborhoods from the 1970s and 1980s should also become natural gas-free and, where possible, energy neutral. Four residents' cooperatives play a pioneering role in the redevelopment and management of the neighborhood. Only when these challenges are tackled integrally can Almere Haven solve its healthcare issue and become truly future-proof.
