Warmoesstraat

De Wallen · Oldest Street · Free

Rich men lived here first, backing onto the harbor. The grandeur drained west to the canals and left this street to fend for itself. That fall fascinates me.

The oldest street in Amsterdam, once the richest. Merchants' warehouses lined it when this was the waterfront; now it's the scruffy back of the Red Light.
