                      How old is your street? New 3D map charts Dutch building eras

                      What is the oldest street in Leeuwarden? When was your home in Groningen built? Where are the newest neighbourhoods in Drenthe? Researchers at TU/Delft have made an interactive 3D map showing the evolution of city construction over the decades where you can find out more about your street’s history.

                      Translation by Traci White

                      The TU/Delft map has information on all 10 million homes across the entire Netherlands: structures are assigned a colour based on the decade they were built – red and orange are older structures, and blues are newer – and users can hover over the map to see exactly what year each building was constructed in. The map gives an especially striking insight into just how many buildings needed replacing following the Second World War and how the cities and towns evolved from their ancient centres outward.

                      The Groninger Internet Courant reports that department behind the map – which is called the 3D Basic Registry of Addresses and Buildings – is the 3D Geoinformation Research Group at TU/Delft. Click on the city names below to explore the streets and neighbourhoods in your neck of the woods.
