Kop van Leeuwenhoek public facilities

Public facilities western part Kop van Leeuwenhoek
In the Kop van Leeuwenhoek, where the university's sports fields used to be, three buildings have been erected recently. In order to keep it easily accessible, the construction of the public space has also started, in consultation with the municipality.

Location

Informatie

Kadans has realised a multi-company building for laboratories and offices in this part of the Kop van Leeuwenhoek. Red Company is working on a building for Janssen Biologics. And the university has opened the public parking garage Ehrenfestweg in the summer of 2022.

In order to give the public space as much green and water as possible, the infrastructure has been kept limited in the design. The greenery gives way to biodiversity, but is also intended for staying and relaxing. The banks in this area are sloping, which gives a nice variety of plants.

Viewed from the Einsteinweg there is a nice glimpse of the new building of Janssen Biologics via this street. The water on the left has sloping banks for higher biodiversity. (Photo 1 May 2022, photo 2 September 2022)

May 2022: Left the Ehrenfestgarage under construction and right the recently completed building Plus Ultra.
September 2022: The banks along this water in the Kop van Leeuwenhoek slope diagonally. This ensures a higher variety of plants and animals. Soon, several native species will be planted here.
