<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Amsterdam, Weesperplein 2-4, DiamondExchangeBuilding (1910/11). Designed by G.A. van Arkel (1858-1918), who also designed three of the bigger diamond workshops in the city of Amsterdam. Sober Art Nouveau, slightly based on Berlage's ExchangeBuilding at the Damrak (1898/03). The building not only housed the Diamond Exchange, but also a bank, a restaurant and a barber shop. Renovated in the early 1920s, 1959 (after a fire which destroyed the roof) and 1991, when a new roof was added. The BAT version shows the original design of 1910/11.
