Rotterdam, the second most populous city in the Netherlands, is home to over 350 completed high-rises.[1] The tallest building in Rotterdam is the Zalmhaven, with a height of 215 metres (705 ft).[2] The 59 storey skyscraper also stands as the highest building in the Netherlands and the Benelux.[3] It surpassed the former tallest building, Maastoren, which rises 165 metres (541 ft).[4]

Rotterdam is well known as the high-rise city of the Netherlands. The city is therefore often called "Manhattan at the Meuse",[5] because of the large number of skyscrapers standing close to the river Meuse, especially at Kop van Zuid. Rotterdam has a rich history in high-rises, dating back to 1897 with the completion of "Het Witte Huis". This office building was at that time the tallest skyscraper in Europe with a height of 43 metres (141 ft).[6] Rotterdam is famous for its characteristic skyline, and its world-wide reputation for innovative architecture. The city stands in the European SkylineTop together with Frankfurt, Milan, London, Madrid, Paris, Warsaw and Moscow. Over 30 new high-rise projects were being developed in the early 2020s.[1]
