Pentagon, Residential complex in Amsterdam-Centrum, Netherlands
The Pentagon building features extensive glass surfaces, round bay windows, and open balustrades above the metro tunnel near Zuiderkerk.
Architect Theo Bosch and J. van Berge designed this social housing structure in 1975 during the reconstruction of the Nieuwmarkt district.
The Pentagon demonstrates the integration of residential and commercial spaces, reflecting Dutch architectural principles of mixed-use urban development.
The building incorporates rubber blocks in its foundation to reduce noise transmission from the subway system running underneath.
The interior spaces transition gradually from public to private areas, following Theo Bosch's vision for community interaction within residential buildings.
