Las Palmas is one of the best-known buildings on the Wilhelminapier in Rotterdam. It was designed in 1953 by architects Van den Broek and Bakema as a warehouse and workshop building. In 2008 it underwent a major renovation led by architecture firm Benthem Crouwel, transforming it into a modern office and cultural building while retaining its industrial character. A striking penthouse on stilts was added on top, giving the building its recognisable silhouette.
The building has eight floors with 19,075 m² of office space, 530 m² of archive space and 86 parking spaces. The large, open floors with high ceilings and plenty of daylight are typical of the former warehouse. Las Palmas holds a BREEAM Very Good label and energy label A++, has 100% LED lighting and is connected to the district heating network. The owner is working towards BREEAM Excellent, replacement of the HVAC system and additional solar panels. Available floor areas and rents are on request.
The Wilhelminapier on the Kop van Zuid sits right next to the Erasmus Bridge, with Wilhelminaplein metro station (lines D and E) within walking distance. Hotels, restaurants, theatres and the water taxi are all on the pier itself. View more office space for rent in Rotterdam on our website.

Office space rent – city Rotterdam
€/sqm per year
Rotterdam's prime office market surged from €165 to €290/m²/year (+76%). Growth remained steady until 2019 (+18% over four years) driven by regular economic expansion. COVID-19 caused a slowdown in 2020-2021 as uncertainty and remote work dampened demand, yet fundamentals held. Sharp acceleration from 2022 onwards (+15% in two years) reflects rising interest rates increasing capital values and a structural shift toward A-grade space as hybrid working models took root. Post-2024 momentum intensified (+25% in two years): acute shortage of modern, high-quality office stock in Rotterdam's core markets, combined with improving business conditions and constrained new supply, pushed rents significantly higher.
