What the buyer is looking for
Amsterdam Central Station, built from 1881-1889 by P.J.H.Cuypers in a neo-Gothic-Renaissance mixing style using a lot of decorative sculpture that has been a national monument since 1974. Over the years, various activities have been carried out in many places in the station. The construction of the North/South line is the reason to restore the monumental station to its former glory from a central vision. The station from the late 19th century must meet the experience requirements of safe and comfortable travel in the 21st century. This not only restores, but also rebuilds functions. As part of this task, the carriage hoods and awning must also be restored. See tender dossier.
