Golden Phoenix (Gulden Feniks) 2014 – 1st prize category Area Transformation – Rotterdam Central Station as part of the Rotterdam Central District

Rotterdam Central Station as part of the Rotterdam Central District has been awarded as winner of the Golden Phoenix (Gulden Feniks) 2014 in the category Area Transformation

The completion of the 46,000 m² station has put Rotterdam central station squarely back on the map as a major city-centre hub. It plays an important role in the European network of high-speed rail connections, serving as a gateway to Europe. It is here that countless European passengers enter and leave the Netherlands. This two-way connection between the city and Europe also adds an extra dimension to the station and its surroundings. This made it a particularly interesting assignment for us.
