Rotterdam Special - A city re-inventing itself | Savills
Rotterdam special report cover image

Rotterdam can easily be regarded as the most dynamic city of the Netherlands. It is the only Dutch city with a true skyline. A skyline that will only get denser in the years to come as more and more high-rise buildings are delivered. It is a city where architecture is used to enhance the quality of life and to revive parts of the city which were lagging behind. It is a city where institutional, top-down schemes go well together with smaller, local and often private contributions. A city where the slogan “actions speak louder than words” is central in its thinking. And thus a city that continuously invests in itself, not in order to compete with other cities, but simply because it has to; it is in its DNA.
