Photo Friday: Renovations in Utrecht

Downtown Utrecht is currently a big mess, and it has been like that for several years. There are many large renovation and building projects going on: The train station and the bus and tram terminals are completely revamped, and so are the mall, the Vredenburg music hall and the Jaarbeurs exhibition halls and convention center. Utrecht will have a newly built town hall right next to the train station. Many new shops, offices and apartments are built around the mall. The Catharijnesingel, once a canal but a major road for as long as I can remember, is closed now and will soon be a canal again.
