Thsi gives a rough idea wher I've walked this Afternoon. I live at the 0-sign

My appartment is situated in the brown brick building. It dates from the early eighties

A view from the other side of Scheepmakershaven. Where sand is now will be built a 4 storys deep parking garage

Alongside river Maas (1 at plan). It's called Maasboulevard and it gives breathtaking views of the river and the bridges. As it's also used as a main traffic through road it never became what planners thought of it (few people). Now there will be placed a 'beach' real sand, during the summer period

The first try out ? Point 2 at map

Bridge in background is Willems bridge, opened in 1978
