BAM signs construction agreement for residential complex De Sax – Rotterdam
On the iconic Wilhelminapier in Rotterdam, VOF PhilHavana and BAM Bouw en Techniek have signed the construction agreement for the De Sax residential complex. VOF PhilHavana – a collaboration between BPD | Bouwfonds Gebiedsontwikkeling and Synchroon – and BAM Bouw en Techniek have thereby officially launched the construction of a unique and sustainable residential building.
De Sax comprises two residential towers, Philadelphia and Havana, which will be connected by a striking ‘golden beam’ high above the ground. The project is a prime example of efficient land use, with 916 homes – half of which are designated as affordable mid-rent housing – and a strong focus on mobility transition and liveability.
Building a sustainable tomorrow
Every day, we work on solutions to address major societal challenges such as the housing shortage, the energy transition, and climate change. De Sax is not only adding a new residential building to Rotterdam’s skyline but also contributing to a healthier, more inclusive, and future-proof living environment for everyone.
’With the realisation of De Sax, we are adding a bold and distinctive residential building to the city. For us, it is a great example of how innovative construction methods can enable safe, efficient, and sustainable building in a dynamic urban environment. Together with our partners, we are creating a future-proof residential tower rising 180 metres high – building, quite literally, the Rotterdam of tomorrow,’ says Eric Moleman, Managing Director, BAM Bouw en Techniek – Projecten.
