The future belongs to Rotterdam
Kaapkwartier is Rotterdam’s clear answer to the question of what the city’s future should look like. It is a future in which the city centre grows on both banks of the river Nieuwe Maas — a lively and recognisable place that gains its energy from ambition, creativity and hard work. Kaapkwartier fits seamlessly into that vision.
In Kaapkwartier, you will soon find everything that Rotterdam, its residents and its visitors need to shape the coming days in a strong, responsible and sustainable way. Living, entrepreneurship, working, education, going out, sports, hotel facilities, cultural and social amenities — it all comes together in one place where the city’s history is transformed into a promising future.

South City Centre
Rotterdam is growing rapidly, and the city centre is expanding with it — especially around the Rijnhaven on the southern bank of the river Nieuwe Maas. And that makes perfect sense, because the conditions for growth here are ideal. Within just 15 minutes you have access to everything: places to live, work, shop, exercise, dine out, enjoy a drink, relax in green spaces, visit theatres and other cultural venues, and access education and healthcare. Nothing overwhelms; instead, there is a well-balanced mix of activities designed to make life as comfortable as possible for residents and visitors alike.
Here, characterful urban residents, vibrant hospitality venues, appealing shops and inspiring businesses find a place for the future. And accessibility is excellent: Kaapkwartier is extremely well connected by all forms of public transport. You can reach Rotterdam Central Station by metro in just a few minutes, and thanks to the underground Q-Park parking garage, arriving by car is just as easy.
Kaapkwartier is part of the broader transformation of the Rijnhaven into a vibrant extension of Rotterdam’s city centre — one that reflects the stature of a true metropolis. It was the sailors, streetwalkers, local heroes and tough characters who once shaped the identity of this harbour and of Katendrecht. The best of that spirit proudly remains, in a part of the city that is ready to add a new chapter to Rotterdam’s story.
