  1. Once upon a time a VOC billionaire lived in the entire house, with maids in the attic and a servant in the sub-terrain. But only for the colder months, in summer they lived in the country house. Now every floor is rented out as an expensive apartment. And the billionaire lives in Monaco.

  2.  @rmyikzelf5604  No, merchandise was kept in big storage houses in or near the harbor. Trade was done quickly, most goods were sold on the quay where it was unloaded. Even Chinese porcelain was held up, shown, and sold for the highest bid. Only special orders were kept apart and brought home. And yes, there was house personnel, the lady of the house could not dress or undress without the help of maids. A simple thing like boiling water, for tea or coffee, had to be made over open fire by a man downstairs and brought up by a maid to the living area.
