The building
The Driehoek property, together with Brouwersgracht 203 and 205, forms a group of three warehouses. It has two cadastral addresses, namely Driehoekstraat 1 and Brouwersgracht 723. The apartment received its current address in 1998 after the building was converted into an apartment complex.
There’s no city in Europe with such a vast collection of monuments like Amsterdam. Almost all goods traded around the world were stored in Amsterdam’s warehouses. In the early 17th century, warehouses were constructed on a large scale. These warehouses, like merchant houses, are narrow, deep, and tall.
Warehouses are recognizable by the vertical row of attic windows with shutters. These windows are often rounded at the top, but there are also warehouses with rectangular windows. Warehouses usually feature a stepped gable. Stepped gables were commonly used in the construction of warehouses well into the 18th century. There are few visual differences between 17th and 18th-century warehouses. Amsterdam’s warehouses were built for centuries with few changes, making them often difficult to date.
