- In the article: Cato de Beer and her neighbours hold a second tile-lifting day here; the text says dock workers once lived in the 1920s terraced houses. A street party atmosphere prevails and residents say they have got to know each other through the project.
- Why it matters: It is a second street showing the social effect of the practice, five minutes’ walk from Katendrechtse Lagendijk.
