Huidenstraat (One of the Nine Streets). Amsterdam
The idea to promote the Nine Little Streets as a shopping area came from Djoeke Wessing. Still a local shop keeper, she wanted a common name for the area to give the same allure as the Jordan. This, she felt, would promote cooperation and business growth, but also attract more tourists to the hitherto relatively unknown area. The Association of The 9 Streets was founded on November 12, 1996. Nobody thought it was a good name at the time, but the name has stuck, and the area retains de 9 Straatjes' name.
The Nine Streets: Reestraat, Hartenstraat, Gasthuismolensteeg, Oudespiegelstraat, Wolvenstraat, Berenstraat, Huidenstraat, Runstraat y Weide Heisteeg.
