Situated on the 14th floor, you can enjoy spectacular views over, among others, the Johan Cruijff Arena, the Zuidas business district, the historic city center, the IJ with passing cruise ships, the green northern districts, the Oranjesluizen, and even the Markermeer towards Pampus and IJburg.

For your daily groceries, you can easily walk to Shopping Center Brazilië. In the immediate vicinity, you will find plenty of sports facilities, schools, childcare centers, and green spaces such as Rietlandpark. Flevopark and Oosterpark are also just a short bike ride away.

Culinary-wise, you are more than well served, with hotspots such as Badhuis Amsterdam, Wilde Zwijnen, and La Contessa just around the corner. For a night out, venues like Panama and the city center are also nearby.

Within 10 minutes, you can cycle to Central Station or reach the heart of the city center. Public transport is excellent, with various tram and bus connections in the immediate area.
