De Schoone Dame
This former stately bank has been converted into luxury apartments. It was one of the first developments to feature a caretaker, a swimming pool, and an Immediately parking garage. The complex stretches from Herengracht to Singel and is divided into two Homeowners' Associations (VvE's). Thanks to its grand design and central location, it is a popular complex in Amsterdam's city center. The residents are people who enjoy city life and appreciate the comfort and security it offers.
I find redevelopment projects interesting. Old construction drawings show that there was a large vault under the former trading floor, completely surrounded by control corridors. A panoramic elevator has now been installed in this space, while the wide staircases have been retained. It is one of the most spectacular entrances in the city. The fact that not many transactions take place in the building is a sign to me that the residents enjoy living there. Who will succeed the current resident will become clear in the near future.
