Abstract

This article investigates how sustainability thinking influenced urban development in the city of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s by narrating microhistories of the Kadijken, a former harbour area in the eastern inner city. First, the site and researcher are introduced through a short story that is used as a springboard from which to further explore the rich histories of the site. The following three microhistories are interlaced with archival photographs.
