AREA Baarsstraat is located in the heart of the Schinkelbuurt, a neighbourhood that was largely developed in the early 20th century. Most buildings in the street date from around 1912–1915 and are part of what is known as “revolutiebouw”: solidly constructed Amsterdam residential buildings with high ceilings, large windows, and an efficient layout, designed for the rapidly growing city of that time. From an urban planning perspective, the neighbourhood is characterised by its classic Amsterdam structure with quiet residential streets, closed building blocks, and a human scale. The Schinkelbuurt was designed as a compact urban district with a strong focus on light, air, and livability. The streets in the area often reference the maritime history of the neighbourhood, such as Sluisstraat, Vaartstraat, and of course Baarsstraat itself. Its location between the Schinkel, Vondelpark, and Amstelveenseweg provides an attractive combination of tranquillity, greenery, and urban energy. The neighbourhood has a village-like feel, with wide pavements, mature trees, and a friendly residential atmosphere. For daily groceries, Albert Heijn and greengrocer Wessels are nearby, while lovers of artisanal bread can go to Le Fournil or Klopper & Stolk. From a good coffee at Anne & Max or Catcha to drinks at Bar Bonnie or Gent aan de Schinkel, there are plenty of options. For a more extensive dinner, popular restaurants such as Ron Gastrobar and Simply Fish are within walking distance.

The name also indirectly refers to the historic neighbourhood “De Baarsjes”, which took its name from the inn De Drie Baarsjes on the Kostverlorenvaart. This inn already existed in the 17th century and became a landmark on the outskirts of Amsterdam. From this historical naming tradition, several streets and neighbourhoods in Amsterdam later came to include references to “baars”.
