Ode aan ODEON | Toen en nu, in woord en beeld

What makes this location so special? What memories are there? How did the new residential building come about? What were the ideas? And how do the residents experience this place? Odeon on the Gouvernestraat in the Oude Westen has stood for over a hundred years. Since 1924, there has been a continuous mix of functions here - party hall, theatre, shops, offices, community centre, daycare centre, and always residences. During the urban renewal, it was the central place for sports, parties, and the meetings of the Aktiegroep. With the newly completed residential building, Odeon is entering a new era again.
