Before they renovated the Central Station and built up all the new office buildings behind it there used to be a small area that looked pretty dubious there with like a row of decrepit warehouses that people were living in - you could see it from the tracks when going towards Sloterdijk. It was in the early 2000s that a remember seeing it but it’s been gone for a long time now - I think when they started renovating the Central Station for the North-South line they tore it down - there are office buildings there now. If anything, there were a bunch of shootings and stuff in Amsterdam North for a while - but it’s been pretty quiet the last few years.
