At the J.A. van der Goeskade built this monumental building in 1651. It is a building in the style of the classic baroque. The Sint Maartenspoort stood between this house and the Kleine Kade. When this gate was demolished around 1863, 'Huis Hoope' became the home of the bridge keeper until in 1939 the swing bridge over the harbor was replaced by a fixed bridge.

The Hoope cellar house (J.A. van der Goeskade 69) has a striking classicist pilaster facade from 1651 with imaginative Ionic capitals and broken sandstone gables above the windows and the chessboard-like entrance path. On the street there is a sloping cellar hatch and a hardstone entrance staircase. The house, which served as a bridge keeper's house from 1863 to 1938, was restored in 1985.

Huis Hoope on the Joannes Antonides van der Goeskade was built in 1651 at the port of Goes. From the 17th century onwards, the quay was popularly called 'Between the two gates', referring to the Old Main Gate and the New Haven Gate.

The house was probably built as an office for the 'Noordsche Compagnie', which was founded in 1650 by two entrepreneurs from Goes. This company, not to be confused with the 'Northern (or Greenland) Company' that existed from 1613 to 1642, was a cartel involved in whaling. The company had two ships in service, Hoope and Goes, but did not last long. The history of Huis Hoope is shrouded in mystery after the demise of the Northern Company. It is known that the building was used as a bridge keeper's house from 1863 to 1939.

The 17th-century facade remained largely untouched for four centuries. Only the windows were adjusted. During the restoration of 1913-1916 by the city architect F.C.G. Rothuizen, the rod distribution of the windows was reduced again. Some damaged sandstone blocks were also replaced and the bluestone stairs were renewed. The building has a complete basement.
