Purmerend is a city with ambitions. The city is gradually developing into a complete and compact city, well positioned in the Metropoolregio Amsterdam. In the next 20 years the city will undergo the next big transformation. With a process of densification, and transformation the city is preparing itself for the future. As a part of this ambition BURA and LOLA are asked to develop a masterplan for the station area. The Station area originally planned as an extension of the historical city center has the potential to grow and transform into a lively and vibrant city district that is well connected to the city and the city center through the Waterlandlaan.
