Nieuwe Mark

For now, the 'Nieuwe Mark' is still quite a construction site, but the first contours of this new urban river with green quays are already visible.

The Nieuwe Mark brings more nature and water into the city center. This provides cooling, beautification and greening. The material of the quay walls allows plants to germinate and grow easily. Also innovative are the horizontally grown trees that are planted in the quay walls. With these "GreenQuays," Breda is another step closer to its ambition of becoming City in the Park.  

Across the street, old and new blend seamlessly. The tower of the Marquant apartment complex connects nicely to the former chapel that now belongs to Hotel Nassau Breda.
