Problem statement, problems station area And a part of the problems is caused by the station area: unsave underpass to platforms unattractive station square shop?? restaurant?

Problem statement, problem statement and aim Problem statement The station and station area (such as railway embankments and the underpasses) is unattractive (image problem) is unsafe (social problem) has unclear spatial structures (spatial problem). Case studies, meaning of the elevated railway line in other cities Londen and Paris Chicago and Berlin Tokyo and Bangkok Aim Reduce the fragmentation of Amsterdam-East by transforming the elevated railway line to a well integrated permeable (spatial), attractive and iconic (image) element with safe underpasses (social) to which local program is attached (U). Paris Chicago Tokyo The heart of this elevated railway line will be an renewed attractive (image), safe (social) and well connected (spatial) Muiderpoort Station, that attracts visitors and commuters to Amsterdam-East (A). well integrated and permeable attractive and iconic element with safe underpasses and new (local) program Problem statement, page 9 of 57 Case studies, page 10 of 57
Case studies, integration of the elevated railway line in Amsterdam-East Literature studies, integration of the station in Amsterdam-East Amsterdam and Rotterdam Amsterdam-East In most cities in the Netherlands the link between the railway station and the city centre is unattractive and lacks vitality.? (Kusumo). Amsterdam, Tussen de Bogen Program along the railway To connect the station to the centre the part of Celebesstraat between station and Javastraat should be made more attractive and vital. gallery café gallery café Case studies, page 11 of 57 literature studies, page 12 of 57

Design experiment, part 1: creative incubators The development of an incubator can serve as a catalyst and contribute to the economic revitalization of the neighborhood (VROM 2004). Research has shown that every year at least 400 creative artists or creatives are searching for affordable workspace (Amsterdam Bureau Broedplaatsen 2012). Design experiment, part 1: creative incubators The Old South and Centre districts, the creative core, come in the figures of TNO as important location forward. New clusters have been created to the south, the district East/Watergraafsmeer with Weesperzijde and Oosterparkbuurt, on the east side, the Eastern Docklands, part of the Zeeburg district and in the Watergraafsmeer around Linnaeusparkweg.

Design experiment, part 1: creative incubators Design experiment, part 2: shops and horeca The disciplines that are looking for workspaces are more than half among the visual arts. Followed by Design and Architecture (19%) and music (12%) (Gemeente Amsterdam 2012). Examples of creative spaces under the railway: Music academy, Tussen de Bogen Amsterdam Architects JagerJansen, Hofbogen Rotterdam Creative incubators Retail and horeca Start-ups Science Park Cycling route Car traffic route Walking route Art gallery, Viaduc des Arts Paris Creative spaces in Leamington Design experiment, page 25 of 57 Design experiment, page 26 of 57
Design experiment, part 2: shops and horeca Design experiment, part 2: shops and horeca The (future) developments in the adjacent areas will have an impact on the development of hospitality (Horeca Visie Indische buurt). Apart from the somewhat unilateral offer, the hospitality is at this moment also marked by it s the little inviting appearance (Horeca Visie Indische buurt). snackbar, automatic, cafetaria, lunchroom, ijssalon (17) coffeeshop (2) café, bar, restaurant (29) koffiehuis (6) overige horecagelegenheden (16) station Design experiment, page 27 of 57 Design experiment, page 28 of 57
Design experiment, part 3: small bussinesses Design experiment, part 2: shops and horeca The new hospitality and retail should focus on current (immigrant) population, new residents with higher incomes, young creatives, students who live nearby and tourists (Horeca Visie Indische buurt). Examples of creative spaces under the railway: Grand café under Viaduc des Arts, Paris Restaurant under the U-Bahn, Berlin Creative incubators Retail and horeca Start-ups Science Park Cycling route Car traffic route Walking route Restaurant in railway arch, Londen Shops in railway arches, Zurich Design experiment, page 29 of 57 Design experiment, page 30 of 57
Design experiment, part 3: small bussinesses Amsterdam Science Park is an inspiring location where Enterprise, Research and Education come together. (Young) knowledgeintensive companies bring innovations on market and scientists have plenty of room to develop (Sciene Park Amsterdam). Design experiment, part 3: small bussinesses The image of the Science Park is enhanced by the proximity of a green science park aimed at children. This makes it even more attractive to (foreign) companies and researchers to establish themselves here (Gemeente Amsterdam 2009).

Design experiment, part 3: small bussinesses The need for small business premises (150 to 250 m2) is large in Amsterdam. Entrepreneurs and small businesses are essential for economic renewal in a district (Gemeente Amsterdam). Examples of creative spaces under the railway: Design experiment, part 4: parking garages The rollout of the highly urbanized core and the intensity of its use requires a reassessment of the role of the car in the city. The pursuit of a car-free center area initially starts with the reduction of parked cars on streets and squares that belong to the highly urbanized center area (Structuurvisie Amsterdam 2040).
