Place Game
April 2018
Commissioned by Wonam and the municipality of Amsterdam, Placemaking Plus organized a place game around the Hondsrugweg on the 19th of April. The prupose of the meeting was to explore opportunities for this area. At this meeting, short and long term ideas for Hondsrugweg were presented.
Most of the ideas concentrated on making the place more lively by involving various entrepreneurs to organise more activities and events.
The participants discussed ideas such as placing benches, play equipment and mobile catering to make it a more attractive area in the short term. At the moment there are already buildings that are empty or temporarily uninhabited. These premises could also be used in other ways for Placemaking.
