Scheepvaartkwartier is the elegant south-western edge of Rotterdam's city centre: the nineteenth-century neighbourhood around Veerhaven, Parklaan, Westerkade and Het Park, with the Euromast as its landmark. This is historically where the shipping companies and shipbrokers had their offices, and that atmosphere has remained: stately townhouses with high ceilings, views over the Maas and the yachts in Veerhaven, and the Erasmusbrug just around the corner. This page lists our current office space to let in Scheepvaartkwartier (2 office buildings).
For offices where a representative address matters and scale stays small: lawyers, notaries, wealth managers, family offices, maritime and legal service providers, architects and boutique consultancies. Most buildings offer office space by floor or by room, from thirty to a few hundred square metres; large open floorplates are rare here. Anyone looking for their own front door in a listed building will feel at home.
Prices are at city-centre level; a renovated townhouse on Veerhaven or Parklaan ranks among the more expensive addresses in the city, while buildings on Westzeedijk and Vasteland are more keenly priced. With listed buildings, pay attention to the energy label and climate provisions; see energy label and rental price.
Leuvehaven metro station (lines D and E) is on the edge of the neighbourhood, the trams along Westzeedijk and Vasteland connect to Rotterdam Centraal in ten minutes, and the water taxi stops at Veerhaven. By car via Westzeedijk and the Maastunnel (A4, A15) or the Erasmusbrug (A16); on-street parking is for permit holders and is paid parking, and many buildings have a few spaces on their own grounds or a subscription in the car park on Vasteland.
Het Park and the Euromast for a lunchtime walk, restaurants on Veerhaven and Westerkade, and Erasmus MC (university hospital) and Coolhaven within cycling distance. Neighbouring districts: Cool to the north and Stadsdriehoek to the east; across the bridge lies Kop van Zuid. More monumental workplaces: seven monumental office buildings in Rotterdam.
