In 1881 the Шаблон:Convert plot of land was purchased by Agneta Matthes and Jacob Cornelis van Marken at the price of 16,000 guilders.[3] It was built after the plans of the architect Louis Paul Zocher, who designed an English Landscape garden—scale park. 48 terraced houses, semi-detached houses and community buildings were placed around the park. The area had no urban infrastructure and was a disadvantage.[4] There were three main buildings, De Gemeenschap (the community), a large house which included a kindergarten and an elementary school which included a dining room and a gym, de Tent (the tent), a music and event pavilion where a grocery store and a bakery business where there was late a clothing shop. Finally, the children's playground, which included a bowling alley, a shooting range and a boathouse for the ability to hire rowing boats.[5] There was also a shooting club, a bowling club, a bicycle club and a brass band.
