Amsterdam hits housing snag: Construction falls short of target

Despite starting construction on over 5,000 homes in 2023, Amsterdam fell short of its ambitious goal of 7,500 new units, highlighting ongoing challenges in addressing the city's chronic housing shortage. "These are tough times for housing construction, and we notice that," admitted Housing Construction Alderman Reinier van Dantzig. "But compared to previous crisis years, we're doing well thanks to hard work by all parties."

Largest Dutch cities want Cabinet to guarantee housing construction can continue

They suggest the temporary introduction of a premium paid at the start of construction projects, and a construction guarantee scheme backed by the national government.
