From industry to innovation

Buiksloterham has a rich history along the IJ—evolving from shipyards and factories into a new, vibrant urban district.

1 / 4

Shaped by the IJ

Buiksloterham has a history rooted in industrial development along the IJ. Once shaped through land reclamation and developed as a working area for shipyards, storage, and water-based trade, it grew into a robust industrial district.

2 / 4

A layered history

Over the years, old warehouses, quays, and factory yards have made way for new plans, yet the raw structure remains clearly recognizable.

In this way, the history of Buiksloterham forms a layered foundation for the transformation the district is undergoing today.
