Also Amsterdam Central Station will be opened this year. This would be the beginning of a great development for the sale of coffee in the cafe.

During a renovation old Russian coins and newspapers were found behind the ceiling. Also antique tiles were found in the basement. Connoisseurs estimated that these tiles are more than 300 years old.

In a secret compartment behind the bar, an old bottle of vodka with the imperial eagle seal of Nicholas the Second was found.

Due to high renovation costs, Anton Korpershoek was forced to sell his café. Gerard Böschen became the new owner of the café and was forced to change the name into Café Karpershoek, due to the fear of legal prosecution.
