This community centre is a central meeting point for residents who want to participate in improving the climate of the city. It provides information and advice about the city on different topics. Neighbourhood associations and initiatives can make use of the spaces in the centre. The centre was founded on October 25, 1957. Rumours say that it has become pray to gentrification itself, as the city of Amsterdam has apparently sold the building to a developer, that will probably turn the building into a store and fancy apartments.
