Veldhuizen: New Neighbourhood in Utrecht's Leidsche Rijn
One of the newest residential areas in the Netherlands, Veldhuizen took shape in the 2000s and 2010s as part of Utrecht's massive Leidsche Rijn development. About 9,460 residents live in contemporary housing ranging from terraced family homes to apartment blocks, planned around green courtyards and water features. The district is part of the gemeente Utrecht.
The Maximapark, a large park designed as the green heart of Leidsche Rijn, provides recreation space. Leidsche Rijn Centrum, the area's new town centre with shops and a library, is nearby. The A2 motorway and Utrecht Leidsche Rijn railway station connect the district to the wider region. Unlike older Utrecht neighbourhoods, Veldhuizen was designed from scratch with modern urban planning principles. Utrecht's centre is about 6 kilometres east.
