AMST – sustainable mixed-use new-build development
Of the 252 homes, spread over 2 buildings, 80% are for medium-priced rental apartments and 20% are apartments in the private rental sector. Some of the mid-segment rental properties are suitable for larger families with a home size of more than 100 square meters, which is quite exceptional in Amsterdam. The rental of the apartments will start this week. Si-Mohamed El M Barki, Real Estate Developer at MRP: “We are very pleased that McDonald's has chosen for the location of AMST. AMST will be a dynamic place to live, work, meet and relax.AMST is centrally located opposite the Amstel railway station, close to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol and various highways. The urban plinth includes a JUMBO supermarket, catering, a food market, an incubator and facilities for entrepreneurs. In the design a water-neutral project is realized. All rainwater is retained and reused, the roofs, courtyards and gardens function as a system for storing and reusing water. AMST is a sustainable project using sustainable materials.
