Geldershoofd en Gravestein, Residential complex in Amsterdam-Zuidoost, Netherlands

The buildings contain 18 specialized apartments spread across two structures, each featuring private entrances, living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, and bathrooms.

Originally named Gliphoeve I and II in the 1970s, these honeycomb-shaped buildings housed numerous Surinamese immigrants before Suriname's independence in 1975.

The complex provides specialized housing for adults with mild intellectual disabilities, enabling them to maintain independence while receiving continuous support.

Located near Ganzehoef metro station and bus line 66, the buildings offer convenient access to shopping centers, community facilities, and green spaces.

The buildings' names originate from a Surinamese plantation and a Gelderland estate, reflecting the Netherlands' historical connections.
