First of all, Happy Canada Day to y'all!! Hope you're enjoying the long weekend.
Thursday night I went downtown and took some pics of the city.
Note: Rotterdam is a very un-European city,
because in the Downtown area there are mainly offices and,
even though the're trying to bring residences to downtown,
the place can look deserted after business hours.
Having said that, I hope you can still appreciate the
architecture I'll try to show you in this thread.
I'm going on vacation to Germany and Austria tomorrow (by train, I'll grab the ICE). I hope to show you some shots of Munich, Salzburg and alpine Austria in a few weeks.
Here we go!
Weena, a big avenue surrounded by office towers.
The Westin Hotel and a clear blue sky.
All the following pics were taken at Weena.
Art?
Let's zoom in a little.
Trams
The country's tallest.
I love this building!
The Westin reflected in the ING building (named Delftse Poort).
Schouwburgplein feat. a world cup ad
Now, lets leave the CBD and head to the water!
Erasmus Bridge.
Building across the river.
The Euromast.
Another couple of buildings across the river.
That grey building to the right is the World Port Center. It's the office of the harbour company of Rotterdam. I did an investigation for them on the effectiveness of waterfront urban regeneration in the cities of Bremen, Emden (both in Germany) and the neighbourhood of Schiemond (Rotterdam). I finished it yesterday so now I have vacation!
To end this thread of Rotterdam, a cargo ship passing through the city waters.
Hope you all have a fantastic summer!!
