Bastiaanpoort, Delft Urban block for Delft city centre

Period 2016 - 2021 Client MN and Proactief Vastgoed, Pensioenfonds Metaal en Techniek Project architect Hans Kalkhoven, Alex Letteboer, Antony Laurijsen Address Bastiaanpoort, Delft Gross floor area 8,260 m²

2021 saw the completion of housing and retail complex Bastiaanpoort in Delft. The building occupies an important location on the edge of the historic city centre, previously home to department store V&D. After the bankruptcy of this retail chain, property developers MN and Proactief Vastgoed opted to redevelop the site on behalf of Pension Fund Metaal & Techniek. The result is a building block with rental housing and shops in the plinth, adding to the housing stock in Delft and the liveliness of the neighbourhood. The complex is designed as a recognisable, uniform building block, executed in warm-hued brick. Standing at a height of four floors, it provides a transition between the higher new constructions around the Bastiaansplein and the lower buildings of the historical city centre.
