visually dominant Explanation: This is from the onroerend goed NL/EN dictionary. Example from the web: http://www.stockport.gov.uk/content/business/regeneration/hi... "The relatively modest and functional 2 storey public house and commercial buildings in local brick, render and slate create a dramatic contrast with the height and exuberance of the Town Hall, which is the most visually dominant building in the area.

landmark Explanation: "een beeldbepalend gebouw" - a landmark, or: a landmark building "A landmark (building)" may not be exactly the same as a "een beeldbepalend gebouw" but - depending on the context and purpose of the text - you may find it useful. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landmark_building |

| Reference Reference information: Objecten die een aanwinst vormen Naast de rijksmonumenten en gemeentelijke monumenten zijn er nog objecten die een aanwinst vormen voor een straat of gebied, maar niet voldoende waardevol zijn bevonden om als monument aangewezen te worden. Deze objecten worden de beeldbepalende panden genoemd. http://www.edegelderland.nl/page/3484.htm |
