I didn't take these. These are taken from a website which keeps track of the progress of new buildings in Amsterdam. These were presumably taken by someone who works on site. What's neat for me is that they focused on what will be our apartment and the view that we're going to have. And they did it from the side that we can't normally see.





Our apartment circled in blue. This side faces soutwest, so most of our direct sunlight will come through these windows. Since we're the highest apartment, we won't be blocked by the other side of the building. We enter through the fifth floor.

That facing is all wood, which I did not realize that they were going to do. I'm a bit worried about maintenance for that.



I like this picture because it shows clearly the height of the ceilings and the slant of the roof in our upper floor. On the fifth floor, the ceilings will be 3 meters. On the sixth, they'll start at 2.45 meters facing northwest and then climb to 4 meters on the south side.

That's Silodam that you can see in the background.



This will be our view, shot from inside either our apartment or our neighbor's. That's why he focused on the progress of our apartments, because he thought that our view will be amazing. And so it shall be, I think.
