Description
Buitendraaierij 11 – comfortable and sustainable living with a beautiful view over the IJ.
Living in the protected IJ-Plein cityscape is ideal thanks to its unique location right on the water and its proximity to the ferry to Amsterdam Central Station. The residential complexes in this area were designed by world-renowned architect Rem Koolhaas and stand on historic ground: this was once the site of the Amsterdam Dry Dock Company's shipyard, which is still visible in street names such as Buitendraaierij.

LOCATION AND ACCESSIBILITY:
The IJ-plein, which includes the Buitendraaierij, is located in the Vogelbuurt/IJplein district in Amsterdam-Noord, directly on the IJ. This characteristic neighborhood combines an urban atmosphere with peace and space, and has a special location opposite the center of Amsterdam. The IJ-plein was designed in the 1980s as a modern residential area with a focus on architecture and public space. Its location on the water offers a beautiful view of central Amsterdam and the various boats passing by. This makes it a popular place to live. The neighborhood is small-scale and friendly, with various amenities such as elementary schools, a community center, playgrounds, and small shops. De Buitendraaierij itself is a street in this neighborhood, where there are mainly residential houses, but also a few small-scale workspaces and creative initiatives. The IJ-plein is easily accessible: Ferry connection: The best-known and fastest connection to the city center is via the free ferry from Amsterdam Central Station to the IJplein stop. This ferry takes only a few minutes and runs frequently throughout the day, providing a fast connection to the city center.
Public transport: There are several bus lines connecting IJ-plein with other parts of Amsterdam-Noord and with stations such as Noord (metro), from where the Noord/Zuidlijn (line 52) takes you to the city center and Zuid in just a few minutes.
Bicycle and car: By bike, you can quickly reach the city center via the ferry and well-maintained bike paths. By car, you can reach the city center or the A10 ring road in a few minutes via the IJ tunnel.
