Recently Bicyclemark wrote about the Passenger Terminal Amsterdam and how business is booming for cruise ships looking to dock there. I visited the new building yesterday for a conference, and was able to see it in its full glory from the inside.

Apparently PTA is about more than just welcoming boat-loving visitors. It has the complete facilities of a conference center, complete with catering, meeting rooms, and lounging areas with brightly colored beanbag chairs and a great view of the city. I enjoyed my time there - especially the beautiful walk along the water from the Central Station.
