A former Dutch Navy yard sealed off from the city for roughly 350 years began opening to the public in 2015; in 2019 AMS Institute, Bureau Marineterrein, Amsterdam Smart City and NEMO Science Museum turned it into a permanent outdoor testbed — one of Amsterdam's few sites with a fast, low-threshold permit process for trialling urban tech directly in public space.
