The Plan Pampus is the name of a proposal for an urban extension of Amsterdam made by the architectural firm of Jaap Bakema in 1964-1965. The plan envisioned an elongated archipelago that should have been built east of the city in the IJmeer and extended beyond the island of Pampus. In a sense, the plan can be seen as a precursor to IJburg, but where this occupied district only houses 18,000 residents, the Pampus plan provided housing for 350,000 people.
