    This is a very interesting conversion of a Water tower into a house/apartements. Note the glass walls on the lower floors

      October 23, 2021

      The Hazerswoude-Rijndijk water tower, designed by architect A.D. Heederik, dates from 1915 and is now used as an office space. The tower is owned by Hoogvliet Beheer, part of the Hoogvliet supermarket chain.

      Controlling the water pressure as an original function became obsolete in 1985. After that, the tower, with a potential water reservoir of 200,000 liters, was no longer used and would be demolished. After protests, it was decided to give the tower a different function.

      In 1999, a complex conversion of the tower into office space started. The renovated water tower was opened on November 21, 2003. It is probably the most expensive renovated water tower in the Netherlands and, expressed per square meter, the most expensive industrial building in the Netherlands, because there are only four workplaces.
