Housing association De Alliantie takes 332 modular rental homes in Randstad 21, Almere. The plinth stays with Liven World.
In Almere Centre, Liven World is developing three seventy-metre towers on Randstad 21, plots 1, 5 and 9, designed by MVSA Architects. 332 rental homes in total: 166 social and 166 mid-market. Housing association De Alliantie took them before the first module stood on site. Construction starts in 2028, completion in 2030. De Alliantie itself calls it the first modular residential tower in the Netherlands.
That is proof the method works. Modular, factory-built, twice as fast as conventional. And it is proof the business model holds: a housing association wants affordable rental homes fast and with certainty, and buys the product before it is finished.
The plinth stays with Liven World. That is where it happens: the continuous street, the hub, the place where residents meet. It is what turns a building into a neighbourhood, and what sells the next tower in the next city more easily.
For Liven Invest this is the first exit in the portfolio. Every next tower gets cheaper, because the method repeats and the chain learns. Ten locations are in preparation.
