of Nieuw – Mathenese 2035 strategy
 
1.  Adapting valuable buildings to various functions – Culture Centre, District Council Hall, Sushi Restaurant, Gallery, School, Marine, Workshop Area…
2.  Create Barge area – attract new residents from the sea.
3.  Establishment of Yacht School – future Olympic sailing champion coming from Nieuw – Mathenese
4.  Your part of the garden in the courtyard is next to your home
5.  All WE need is here!
Our project is something more than a plan for Niuew-Martenese – it's the strategy of how to change the district into a place full of life, people and great, unbelievable ideas which come true.
 
 
We drew the plan after hours of scheming for that place. We divided our ideas by time and determined 10 steps of forming a neighbourhood society which live in the valuable space.
