Between 2006 and 2008, Bouwbedrijf Van Gerven built the homes in the Boschhoeve neighborhood in Nuenen. The plan then was to build three office complexes next to these homes, on the Smits van Oyenlaan side. Those offices were not realized; the area was not further developed.

Living in the green

Meanwhile, the municipality of Nuenen and Van Gerven have teamed up to look again at the area. The demand for affordable housing is very high, also in Nuenen. Therefore, the municipality and Van Gerven prefer to build apartments instead of offices at this location. At the same time, we see opportunities to improve the outdoor space.

Gateway of Nuenen

Van Gerven elaborated on these ideas. The apartments in the plan are of similar size to the offices in the first plan. To realize the plans, the function of the area must first be changed. The new plans complete Boschhoeve and give Nuenen a recognizable and attractive entrance.

Schedule and more information

An initial meeting for local residents was held in March 2025 and the City Council will be informed on March 20.
