Agnetapark

Lindenhof in Agnetapark

Agnetapark was an area of workers' housing in Delft, South Holland, the Netherlands. It was one of the highest quality workers' housing areas built before the Housing Act of 1902 was imposed.[1] It was 'transformed' from a marshy 4 hectares (9.9 acres) area of land to a 'paradise' of industry.[2] It is named after Agneta Matthes as she helped transform it.[2]
