Schinkelbuurt (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈsxɪŋkəlˌbyːrt]; "Schinkel neighbourhood") is a little neighborhood of Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Most of the houses date back to the beginning of the 20th century, and the streets often have names from the shipping industry, such as Schinkelhavenstraat, Sluisstraat, Zeilstraat, Vaartstraat and Baarsstraat.

The Schinkel was channeled as part of the Plan Zuid from 1917, developed by Dutch architect and city planner Hendrick Petrus Berlage.

Along the river, there are also potted plants, benches and chairs, making it a nice place to relax and look out over the water.

This neighborhood, inhabited from the Middle Ages at the end of the Overtoomse canal, belonged to the edges of the city in Mondrian's time.

Mondrian, however, continued to work on View of Schinkelbuurt in his studio, only adding the light accents later.
