From medieval urban meadowto modern Blue Zones
Since the Middle Ages, Cartesius has served as a city meadow on the urban outskirts—a green retreat for residents. Now, MRP and Ballast Nedam Development are transforming this historic space into a future-ready neighborhood, designed with sustainability, health, and mobility at its core. Every aspect of the plan is shaped by Cartesius’ unique location, ensuring a seamless blend of history, nature, and modern urban living.
