The building at Ferdinand Bolstraat 8 is located on Ferdinand Bolstraat in the De Pijp neighborhood of Amsterdam-Zuid. It is the only municipal monument on that street, excluding No. 8E.
Designed by the Department of Public Works, it originally housed Fire Station "F" and a police station. The building was small, with no courtyard for horses or vehicles, although there was a garage space at the front and a resting area for firefighters above it. The police station was located behind the garage.
The building, in the neogothic style, is situated between another municipal monument at Eerste Jacob van Campenstraat 59, which was initially a boys' school, and a series of subsided, leaning buildings. For many years, Ferdinand Bolstraat 8 faced a blank wall belonging to the Heineken Brewery, which has since been replaced by new construction, though the wall remains largely featureless.
Both the fire brigade and police moved out within a decade of its construction, with the fire brigade relocating to Albert Cuypstraat 88 and later to Honthorststraat 25–27, and the police to the Stadhouderskade. Since the 1960s, the building has housed a store specializing in sheet music and music books.[1] Tram line 24 in front of the building. (Until 2003, it was also served by the now-defunct tram line 25 and until 2018 by the defunct tram line 16.)
