CENTRE FOR MEDIA, CULTURE, FASHION, FOOD AND CRAFTS. The building where once the first electric trams in Amsterdam were serviced has been granted a new life. In the former tram depot, an official monument built between 1902 and 1928, you now find De Hallen Amsterdam. Right in the middle of the 19th century district Amsterdam West.
