On October 25th 2018, construction began on the Zalmhaven tower. The soon-to-be tallest skyscraper in the Netherlands.
Rotterdam's skyline will never be the same again. A 215-metre structure with nearly 60 storeys; the Zalmhaven Tower in Rotterdam will be the tallest residential tower in the Netherlands. Make that, tallest building, period. The mixed-use tower will have 256 apartments, plenty of office space as well as a restaurant and a nightclub.
The project also includes two 70-metre residential buildings (designed by KAAN Architecten) which will house 196 apartments and 33 single-family homes as well as a shared roof garden and parking facilities.
Is Zalmhaven Tower really 215 metres high? Well, kinda.
The residential tower will stand at 190 metres while a 25-metre antenna will sit on top of the building. At 215 metres, it's 30 metres higher than the Euromast which itself is a giant mast.
When will Zalmhaven Tower be complete?
The project should be complete by sometime in late 2021 or early 2022.
How much does an apartment in Zalmhaven Tower cost?
Prices start at €360,000 for a 61m2 apartment. A 297m2 penthouse will set you back €1,850,000.
