POST Rotterdam

The legendary post office on Coolsingel—one of the main roads in the center of Rotterdam—has been empty for over a decade. But the monumental building has now been given a new lease of life. The Omnam Group is redeveloping the traditional building into a new shopping center with a hotel and high-rise apartment building. The new POST tower will include a total of 305 apartments with 70 different floor plans and 43 stories. All those involved have committed to the highest quality standards. The aim of the city of Rotterdam is to revitalize the neighborhood by activating the site with residential, retail, and catering facilities. Both interior spaces will be open, for example, to the public. Rotterdam will have two majestic covered squares lined with restaurants, cafés, and shops with local character and international charm.
