Abstract

The case studies carried out in Leiden are summarised in this Chapter. They are broadly of two types — studies of expansion projects and studies of the way in which development is controlled in the existing built-up area of Leiden, much of which is not covered by statutory plans (see Figure 21). The structure of the chapter reflects this distinction between the two types of study. The main postwar expansion schemes — South-West Leiden, Morskwartier and Merenwijk — are described first, and the more important case studies carried out in the inner town thereafter.
