This green city is built on the existing islands, so the lake is not getting smaller…

To bury a highway is quite costly, to make something float you just need air. There’s plenty of water around Almere so this little island is not going to spoil that I guess. It even makes the remaining water more accessible because there’s more waterfront now to enjoy.

How competative is the bidding for the World Horticultural Expo that cities are forced to build whole new islands for it!?

But seriously, lakes are great. Why not bury the highway instead?

That's how we roll in the Netherlands, water is our soil.
