One of the first residential areas, from 1850s onwards, that was realised outside the city canals.
Various types of housing with characteristic look. Houses (ground floor and upper floor), built in the period 1905-1930. Sometimes with relatively small gardens.
Kenmerkend voor de wijk is de karakteristieke korenmolen “Rijn en Zon” gelegen aan de Adelaarsstraat.
Vogelenbuurt borders the Griftpark.
On the edge of the neighbourhood is the Zijdebalen project, which has been developed from 2010 onwards.
Because it is a very compact neighbourhood, there is no room for ground development. You do see that existing buildings (shops, schools, supermarkets, etc.) are redeveloped into living accommodation.
