Abstract
Amsterdam is the capital of The Netherlands. The city is located in the densely populated western seaboard and is the largest and most important financial and cultural centre. The wide economic base is well linked to the continent. The historical centre is unique. However, Amsterdam lacks land suitable for urban development within the municipality. Valuable ecological features also constrain growth and limit the number of spatial alternatives. The main planning issues are to intensify urban land use together with improved spatial quality, and to find a new regional perspective with a fair distribution of housing and employment and improved accessibility.

Because Amsterdam is situated in former marshland, building poses special problems. The topsoil generally consists of several metres of insubstantial layers of peat. Underneath are clay, thin layers of sand and older layers of compressed peat. Some 11 or 12 metres beneath the city is a layer of marine sand, 3 to 3.5 metres thick. Below that are more layers of clay and compressed peat. At an average depth of 18 or 19 metres below the surface is a second, much thicker, layer of marine sand. From the beginning of the sixteenth century heavy buildings, such as city gates and churches, had to be built on foundations. Originally short wooden piles were used, with a wooden frame on top. Later Scandinavian pine trees were driven through the weak topsoil straight into the first layer of sand. Since the Second World War concrete piles are used, and for larger buildings they are driven right down to the second layer of sand.
