Rotterdam's heritage - Vreewijk the oldest but one garden 'city' in the Netherlands - should be cherished. As it happens, the managing housing corporation is inclined to demolish terraced houses. Its target seems to have more profitable new building high-rise as a replacement in the area Yet, the management has proven to lend a willing ear to all those who take the interests of heritage at heart. The corporation has been cooperative to keep history alive in Museum House Lede 40. Please go to www.comwonen.nl and www.historischmuseumrotterdam.nl to learn more. Vreewijk fouders would have given their consent.Architect Grandpré Molière is one of them. His statement about Vreewijk can be found on a plaque. It says (in Dutch): The value of the 1st Rotterdam garden village is not in what has been built, but in what has been ventured, persevered and defied!
