Hondsrugtoren, Residential tower in Emmen, Netherlands
The Hondsrugtoren rises 65 meters into the sky with 17 floors, containing both rental apartments and owner-occupied residences in the center of Emmen.
Construction of the Hondsrugtoren commenced in March 2019 and reached completion in 2020, marking a new phase in residential development for the Drenthe region.
The name Hondsrugtoren connects to the local geography, referencing the sand ridge that extends from Emmen to the city of Groningen.
The building includes 28 rental units on the lower floors, 19 owner-occupied apartments above, and a parking garage with storage space for 80 bicycles.
As the tallest residential structure in Drenthe province, this tower ended the 47-year record previously held by Woontoren Emmerhout.
