semperjeff said: it’s amazing how the building has pretty much remained unchanged (at least on the outside) since then.
Yes, we are not allowed to change the looks. Especially if you only rent the place. Even at my house (I rent) I can’t build a garage for the car (even if it’s not permanent one), I have to get permission first, from them and my neighbors lol. But about Amsterdam, the street in front of the buildings became larger, the bridge doesn’t look like a bridge anymore it’s just a wide street, bridge can’t be opened. What has changed a lot is Dam Square (the small building in front it now has disappeared. It’s only one small building but for me, it’s a pity!)
on the left side building is Madame Tussaud, right in the center is the palace, right side is shopping centre.
I like it that they remain the same, but the not-so-pretty side is the inside of unused churches. It’s a church, but inside, there’s uhmmm another…. “activities”….yknow…it’s only the looks. (The building on the right side is a church too but i’m not talking about that one lol).
