Neighborhood Guide
Duivendrecht was primarily agricultural land in the early 20th century, with horticulture and livestock. The original polder landscape was established in 1629 after the reclamation of Lake Diemermeer. The neighborhood is very popular with families due to the spacious homes, numerous play facilities for children, and quiet streets.

Architecture
The term “1930s house” refers to residential homes built in the Netherlands between 1920 and 1940, characterized by brick facades, stained glass elements, a front and back room separated by sliding doors, panel doors, terrazzo or granite floor elements, and relatively high ceilings. Entrances with awnings, wide eaves, and bay windows are also quite common. The roof covering almost always consists entirely of roof tiles. Often, these homes are located just outside the 19th-century city cores, sometimes in so-called garden suburbs. At Rijksstraatweg 53, many of these typical features are still visible, such as stained glass windows, panel doors, the staircase, and the roof overhang.
