The flats on your right (see photo 4) were built around 1965. They are nicely situated in the green. The average value of a flat here in 2020 was about € 600.000. Using the site https://www.atlasleefomgeving.nl/check-je-plek you can request information about environmental characteristics from almost any location in the Netherlands. Many homes in Buitenveldert are close to parks, but have to deal with air pollution and noise pollution.

Along your walking route, different types of trees can be found left and right. Along the water are large willows but also other trees. Many trees were planted during the development of the park in the sixties of the last century and are now more than 50 years old and quite large. If you want to know what kind of tree you see, all the trees in Amsterdam that belong to the municipality can be found on https://maps.amsterdam.nl/bomen/.
