The house, built in 1655 and brick-built House De Cardinalen (Hogendijk 62), received a front apron and side pillars with a wooden front and door with skylight. The house contains a double tile chimney from the construction period. A 17th-century origin also has the plastered transverse house Zuiderkerkstraat 3 (circa 1690). Above the entry list of this former minister's house is a facing brick with the coat of arms of Oostzaandam. The mansion Westzijde 38 was built in the beginning of the 18th century for ship owner Nicolaas Calff. The façade has checkered corner axes, a wooden attic and a raised center part, and about 1765 was provided with a pronkrisaliet with rich crowning in Louis XV style. The interior contains stucco work in Louis XV style. On the side of the Zaan is a wooden garden house with floor and swung in advance. The T-shaped house on the east side of 221 dates from around 1765. On the north side, a wooden front in Louis XV style is visible and in the middle of the east façade a wooden front with scalloped wind springs. Various interior elements in Louis XV and XVI styles have been retained, including marble fireplaces. It in the core

17th century wide mansion Op den Velde (Westzijde 258) was raised in one storey in 1730 and provided with a new wide façade, which in 1790 was given the current view. Other partly wooden houses from the 18th century are Hogendijk 78 (facing brick '1724', brick listed façade circa 1860), Westzijde 155 and the L-shaped house Oostzijde 242. Of the latter, the brick wing has a swung in front with a pediment and the wooden transverse wing a similar advance and curved corner windows. The completely wooden cross house East Side 256-260 (circa 1790) has two framed entrances, with the left decorated with attributes of trade and industry. Also built entirely in wood is East Side 268, which has a top facade with scalloped wind springs and a curved corner window. The interior contains a tile chimney. The L-shaped stone house Westzijde 256, originally a 17th-century deep house, was given the current view in the course of the 18th century. It now serves as an office for the underlying three-storey factory building built in 1897 as a patent oil factory.

Examples of early 19th century (mostly) wooden houses with a swung advance with fronton and pilasters are Eastside 202-204, Eastside 220 (with drainage), Westside 202 (stone frontage), Westside 240 (advance with side meanders) and the L-shaped house Westzijde 352 (advance with side meander). The stone cross wing of the latter building has a corner window and entrance picture. The neoclassical mansion Zuiddijk 119, built around 1835 against the dyke, is equipped with a balustrade, a cornice with consoles, a curved corner window and a dormer window above the framed entrance. Another example of neoclassicism is the plastered L-shaped house Westzijde 109 (circa 1850), now a police museum, with a façade with fronton and two dormer windows with round window.

L.J. In rich eclectic forms, Immink designed the plastered villa Westzijde 39 (1866), built for the timber merchant C. Corver van Wessem. Characteristic elements inspired by Italian architecture are the printed saddle roofs with akroteria, the porch with balcony on corinthian columns and the classical statues above the frame of the window on the first floor. C. Kamphuis, owner of the steam store of the same name, had the mansion Westzijde 22 (1883) built into a rich neo-Renaissance design by J. and D. Eilmann. The eclectic mansions Stationsstraat 53 (1891) and Westzijde 87 (1895), as well as the neo-Gothic building Stationsstraat 92, have been built as manufacturers' homes. A striking tower-shaped roof structure has the villa Westzijde 114 (1900), built for timber merchant P. Pauw to design by H.G. Jansen. Other examples from around 1900
