History of De Pijp The new neighbourhood that arose behind the Paleis voor Volksvlijt around 1900 was officially known as District YY, but soon became known as De Pijp. The area quickly developed into a vibrant part of the city. Several well-known Dutch writers rented rooms here, including Herman Heijermans, Frederik van Eeden and Bordewijk. De Pijp was also where Eduard Jacobs laid the foundations for Dutch cabaret. The neighbourhood soon became known as the “Quartier Latin” of Amsterdam, a reputation it retains to this day. Famous Amsterdam singer André Hazes regularly performed here and has been immortalised with a statue at the Albert Cuyp Market. There are several stories about the origin of the name De Pijp. In 1892, the neighbourhood was compared to a long pipe from which, early in the morning, living “clouds” of people were blown out on their way to work. Whatever the true origin of the name may be, today everyone knows De Pijp – and it remains one of Amsterdam’s most desirable places to live. In short: a wonderfully bright apartment in a prime location!
