The Piri Reïsplein is a square in Amsterdam West along the Baarsjesweg. It is named after the Ottoman Turkish navigator and cartographer Piri Reïs. The name of the square had already been granted in 2001, yet it took ten years before it was completed. There are 111 homes on the ground floor premises. The residential complex is built by the housing association Stadgenoot (formerly named Het Oosten). The houses and the mosque are both designed by the French-Jewish architect couple Marc and Nada Breitman, inspired by the architecture of the Amsterdam School as well as the Aya Sofya Mosque in Istanbul.
