We

bicyclists and visitors of Amsterdam

observe

• the 'fietsflat' in Amsterdam is build in 2001 as temporary bicycle parking for 2,500 bicycles

• the 'fietsflat' is probably in use until 2023

• every day tourists take pictures of the rows of bicycles as a souvenir of the popularity of the bicycle here and because the lines are visually attractive to frame

• the fietsflat already won design prices

• recent new bicycle parkings in Utrecht and Rotterdam hide bicycles underground, just like cars

• the bicycle should be honoured and shown publicly with an open visible fietsflat

and request

make the fietsflat into a monument.
