Rokin Plaza

Rokin Plaza is a five-story building located between Kalverstraat and Rokin streets, featuring double-height glass entrances on both sides. The complex combines retail spaces on lower floors with office areas above, all connected through internal passageways.

The building was constructed on the site of the Hotel Polen, which was destroyed by a fire in 1977. This reconstruction represented a turning point in the urban development of this central location.

International fashion brands occupy the ground-floor retail spaces, drawing shoppers from across the city. These stores reflect how Amsterdam's commercial heart has evolved over time.

The building is easily accessible from both streets and offers multiple entrance points throughout the complex. Visitors can move freely between retail and office areas using the connected passageways.

The internal passageway connecting the two streets, known as Papenbroeksteeg, creates a hidden pedestrian route that many visitors miss. This cut-through links two of Amsterdam's major shopping streets in an understated way.
