Building a new island? For recreational and living purposes? At first glance this seems like an impossible task due to the economical crises and the political sensitivity of the chosen location. But in fact it is this unique location and the possibility that government and private parties join forces in economical hard times that gives the project great opportunities. An exclusive island that not only improves the recreational possibilities of the region but also stimulates the whole economy of the region. This thesis gives an overview in all the steps and phases that needs to be considered by the realisation of an island. This includes not only an technical and functional design of the island but also the financial feasibility and the possibility of a public private partnership. Based on an extensive study of different functions that accommodate the island a conceptual design is drawn which serves as the input for the financial feasibility. In this financial study the costs of the realisation of the island, infrastructure and real estate is estimated against the profits of developing real estate. To calculate the financial feasibility a model is used that gives an insight in the value of land in according to the use of land. This so-called residual method is derived from the Dutch practise of urban land policy. This model is a fast and an effective way to calculate the actual value of space utilisation. The financial estimation gives an overview of all the costs and benefits in time (see figure). In Dutch this is called “de grondexploitatie”. The multidisciplinary character of the island lends itself to the realisation of the island in a public private partnership. In this cooperation public and private parties work together at an early stage. A project of this size is usually too complex to be realised by one party. Benefits of this partnership are time saving, cost reduction and a better quality as a result of the exchange of information and knowledge. Public private partnership also means that all profits can be utilized for the project. Conclusions The realisation of the island is financial feasible. Public private partnership is the best way to develop the island.
