Guidebook for Amsterdam
Food Scene
I can see everything: From Amsterdam’s historic centre, to its bustling port and the vast polder landscape. I can even spot your house from here. I’ll be able to share this breathtaking 360° view from my observation deck from May 2016. I’ll also host several cool bars and restaurants, and a bunch of pioneering music companies. Expect no sleep as I’ll be open day and night, 25 hours a day, 8 days a week.

Stunning Amsterdam style 15th century style homes! Nieuwendammerdijk (dyke) was originally a late mediaeval settlement on the Waterlandse Zeedijk. Large sections of this dyke run right through the urban areas of Amsterdam-North. Before the capital city made use of the north bank of the IJ River for its shipbuilding and other industries, Nieuwendam lay between fields and the IJ. Life revolved around trade, shipbuilding and the onward transport of dairy products from the hinterland.
