The
former NDSM
wharf is an
important piece
of industrial
heritage that
has now been
earmarked by
the City of
Amsterdam as
an incubator
for artistic
and cultural
activities.
Experimental
art, culture,
new media and
crafts are housed
here in affordable
studios alongside
work, rehearsal
and exhibition
spaces. Even
MTV is planning
to move in.
The NDSM wharf
is located at
a prominent
point on the
northern banks
of the IJ.
ARTTRA will
take you on
an extraordinary
excursion across
the vast waters
of the IJ, using
either the local
ferry - which
is free of charge
- or a private
boat. Instead
of the graceful
canals, you
will encounter
a rougher, tougher
side of the
city where old
industrial architecture
is mixed with
contemporary
housing such
as the MVRDV’s
Silodam.
Tip:
Walking along
the wharf, you
will also see
the student
flats that have
been built into
colourful containers
and creative
industrial organisations
Excluding
private boat.
