Spaklerweg in the east part of town is showing its new colors. Big graffiti artworks cover the walls, made with permission from the city and ProRail. 🌈 🌆

The area around “De Omval” has had a drastic but positive upgrade, keeping its industrial look. Local artists painted the murals with help from art group Infaam. 🎨 👩‍🎨

Pointing at the sky, built primarily from wood and inspired by global examples, this is the tallest hybrid timber building in the Netherlands—and among the tallest worldwide. It stands 7️⃣3️⃣ meters high, with 2️⃣1️⃣ floors.

“HAUT” is a groundbreaking project that proves timber can be part of the future of building, thanks to its innovative wooden structure and energy-generating façades. 🪵 🌳 ♻️

A docked vessel at “Weespertrekvaart”. A waterway that was dug in 1️⃣6️⃣3️⃣9️⃣ as a fast (water)way between Amsterdam and Weesp, which was then known for its gin. 🍸

Horse-drawn tow barges used the canal, pulled along a towpath that still partly exists today. 🐴 🐴

Now it’s a peaceful, green stretch of water between city and nature. Cyclists, rowers, and walkers enjoy the route. 🏙️ 🏃‍♀️ 🍃 🌱

The houseboat” Rival” is moored on the Amstel River near “De Omval”. It’s a former inland cargo ship, about 24 meters long, now used as a houseboat. ⚓️ 🛥️

In the background are two towers in the Amstelkwartier, a modern neighborhood on the east bank of the Amstel. These residential high-rises stand behind Park Somerlust, a green riverside park that also has a historic water tower from 1️⃣9️⃣1️⃣1️⃣, once part of the old Zuidergasfabriek. 🌇🌳🌳

Weesperzijde 249, the place where café "De Omval" stood for more than eighty years (until 2020). The fate of this nostalgic place has been sealed by the future development plans. 🚧🧨🔨

On the other side of the railway tracks: the "Rembrandt Tower" and the "Mondriaan Tower". 🏙️
