Von Neumann Geometry and E(∞) Quantum Spacetimefn1fn1This paper is dedicated to Itmor Procaccia, a personal friend and a fellow fighter for all those things which make life worth living like beauty, peace and justice, on the occasion of his birthday

In this paper, it is shown that von Neumann continuous geometry may be regarded as the first attempt towards formulating a general quantum spacetime geometry akin to that of Cantorian spacetime E(∞) and noncommutative geometry.
