Post CS-gebouw

The Post CS-gebouw featured a concrete and glass facade reaching 50 meters in height near Amsterdam Central Station on the eastern dock island.

The office complex, designed by architects Merkelbach and Elling, opened in 1968 and operated as a central mail sorting facility for the state postal service PTT.

The building later transformed into a center for artists and events, with the Stedelijk Museum establishing a temporary location within its walls until 2008.

Located at Oosterdokskade 161, the structure connected directly to transportation networks and provided modern office facilities in central Amsterdam.

The final section of Post CS-gebouw underwent demolition in 2009 to make space for new developments, including the current Booking.com headquarters.
