Description
These small attached annexes originally belonged to a property situated at the corner of Breedestraat. In 1881, Richard Raven constructed several new annexes behind this house. Located along IJzerstraat, the annexes were rented out to various tenants, including a shoemaker, a tailor by the name of Charles, and two seamstresses. The Raven family retained ownership of the property until 1992. Over time, the annexes became part of the Kura Hulanda project and underwent renovation. One of them now houses sanitary facilities, and another has been converted into a kitchen for the adjacent restaurant.
