Description

"Amsteldijk 75-78" is a symmetrical residential complex in the south of #Amsterdam (Noord-Holland), originally built in 1875 by architect Jan Leliman as two freestanding houses in eclectic style. In 1887, Eduard Cuypers added two more houses and an extra floor, unifying the ensemble. The richly decorated façades feature pilasters, French balconies, and mansard roofs. Sculptural elements were crafted by Pierre van den Bossche and Willem Crevels.
