In the area Hatert, on the edge of the city of Nijmegen, the housing corporations Portaal and Talis organize a great renewal operation. Most of the current housing does not comply with contemporary standards or needs a substantial make over. For this operation the city of Nijmegen worked in cooperation with the offi ce of Khandekar towards a masterplan in which most of the present houses are renovated or renewed. Besides this upgrading, the open areas in the neighbourhood will be filled with
several new housing projects.
A twelve storey apartment tower is planned in the very centre of Hatert, which is presently empty. The
building is meant to become the new ‘crown’ of Hatert. 24H architecture designed a sturdy tower with free
formed balconies around, which make a recognizable sculpture from all directions. The parking for the
apartments is organized underneath a raised deck that will function as a new public space for the citizens of Hatert. Underneath the housing program the ground fl oor will be used as a community health centre.
