history

Bullewijk was created by draining the Holendrecht polder and Bullewijker polder in the east of Ouderkerk aan de Amstel . In 1875 the municipality gave consent for a bog colonization ( Dutch Veenderij ) and was given the name De nieuwe Bullewijk . In 1908 the moor area was also drained.

The district got its name in 1978 after the river of the same name "Bullewijk" and is bounded by the Amsterdam – Arnhem railway line , on the west side by the Utrechtseweg, in the north by the Burgemeester Stramanweg and in the south by the Tafelbergweg. Bullewijk is located in the "Amstel III" industrial park .

Quote: “De Bijlmermeer [in Amsterdam Zuidoost] grenst namelijk aan de Bullewijk, een centrum van internationale hoogwaardige bedrijvigheid, en bovendien ligt mainport Schiphol in de onmiddellijke nabijheid. In de Bijlmermeer zelf, maar vooral vlak daarbuiten zou een market voor uiteenlopende producten en diensten braak liggen, zo will be verondersteld. "
