Ton Meijer establishes the MAB Group. The company will ultimately become the largest developer in the country, with leading projects including Oosterdokseiland, the city centers of Amstelveen, Zoetermeer and Almere as well as Babylon in the Hague. Abroad, MAB realized projects including Domus in Paris.
