Amsterdam - N

"Amsterdam," colour lithograph edited by N.A.I.M. Evers and published by Van Holkema & Warendorf in 1937. Size (border): 73.5 � 87.5 cm. The oldest known map of Amsterdam brought to the market by Tjomme van Holkema dates from 1882. After the 1892 merger into Van Holkema & Warendorf, the new firm issued a whole series of overview maps of the city. This example was printed in 1937. Although the sheet resembles the maps previously published by Van Holkema & Warendorf, a new drawing was made for this edition. The cartographic content was updated accordingly. Striking is H.P. Berlage s Plan Zuid, which was nearly completed at the time. The western part of the city is also further filled in. The streets east of Admiraal de Ruijterweg (grid squares B5, C5 and C6) are shown on the map, and the Central Market Hall (D6) had been built. The later Erasmuspark (B7) had received its definitive boundaries. Public transport routes are indicated by thin red lines. The then-new "De Meer" Ajax stadium (P13 and R13) in the Watergraafsmeer is also marked. New extensions, especially in Amsterdam-West, are included. Of particular note is the new Bos en Lommer neighborhood to the west of Admiraal de Ruijterweg (grid squares A5, B5, A6, B6, A7), still shown without street names. On the reverse side there is an extensive index including street names, public transport lines, notable buildings, and a list of points of interest which is nice to read.
