Torenflat De Oosterbaken, Bauwerk in den Niederlanden
Torenflat De Oosterbaken is a residential tower in Rotterdam with 33 floors and 129 apartments. The structure consists of concrete with textured panels in various shades of gray and large windows that extend across its height of approximately 99 meters.
Construction began in 2004 and the building opened to residents in 2007. It symbolizes Rotterdam's urban renewal since the 1990s, when older structures were replaced with modern housing.
The name Oosterbaken references the area's past as a storage site. Residents use the surrounding park as a meeting place and retreat in their daily lives.
The building is located in Hoogvliet, near parks and with good access to public transport to the city center. The area has bus stops and parking nearby.
The upper floors feature penthouse apartments with wide views over the city and the river. This stands in contrast to the smaller units located on the lower levels.
