In 1856 alderman for Public Works Isaäc Warnsinck (1811-1857) reorganized the municipal building company of Amsterdam, the Stadsfabriekambt.

Elswout Manor in the village of Overveen near Haarlem, is of great art-historical importance, particularly to the history of Dutch country estates and garden architecture. Although it was not until 1660, during its second period of habitation, that Elswout became renowned for its history as well as its striking Dutch classicist architecture, attributed to Jacob van Campen, the manor dates from 1633-1635.
