Contiguous office units of up to 3,000 m²

Building

38,000 m² flexible office space with two roof terraces

Central Post occupies one of the most visible locations in Rotterdam’s central business district. The building was constructed in 1959, and the 2009 refurbishment made it practically a new-build in terms of technical fit-out. It comprises 15 floors both above and below ground. A particular feature is the presence of mezzanine levels which means that office units can be combined both vertically and horizontally. It is possible to create contiguous office suites of up to 3,000 m², which very few other buildings in Rotterdam can match. The two roof terraces offer unparalleled views over the city.

The building also boasts one of Rotterdam’s largest fitness studios over an area of approx. 2,700 m². These advantages are already enjoyed by principal tenants LyondellBasell, DPG Media, the City of Rotterdam and Dept Design & Technology.

From architectural icon to sustainable office building

The 2009 refurbishment of Central Post has transformed it into a highly sustainable office building from an energy-saving perspective. It included a new double-glazed façade allowing for plenty of natural light plus energy-saving insulation. The smart lift control system significantly reduces electricity consumption and waiting times.

All lighting was changed to LED units. The building has been awarded energy category A.
