Podcast | The City of 737 Bridges: Why Almere is Built Differently

Almere isn’t just a “new” city; it’s a social and architectural experiment. Diana and Semih explore the intentional design of the city’s neighborhoods—shaped to balance urban living with vast water reservoirs and forest-like greenery. They talk infrastructure: why Almere’s bus-lane system is the envy of the country and how the 500+ kilometers of bike paths create a commuter’s paradise. Join us as we look past the modern facades to see how the combination of “Green and Blue” creates a unique way of life in the Netherlands’ youngest city.
