Heart of the Waalsprong Housing Complex / De Zwarte Hond

The Heart of the Waalsprong is the new centre of Nijmegen-Noord, where shopping, living and facilities come together. De Zwarte Hond was commissioned by AM and VanWonen to design the urban plan and the Donk and Elft apartment blocks. Other homes in the area were designed by architects BRINK architecture & urbanism, Korth Tielens Architects, Level of Detail and Monadnock. De Urbanisten designed the landscaping, which connects the central square to the Waal River via a green route with a wadi, squares and gardens.
