City of Amsterdam
About
The City of Amsterdam is a Montgomery County city on the Mohawk River, with City Hall at 61 Church Street. The city’s website handles most resident business, including tax and utility payments, FOIL requests, permits, and notices from the Common Council and boards.
The Mohawk Valley Gateway Overlook, a pedestrian bridge over the river, is the city’s signature public space, and Erie Canal Lock E-11 draws paddlers and a youth rowing program. A city-run farmers market, Grow Amsterdam, runs Saturday mornings from early June through the end of October.
