General
The building “De Rustplaets” is a very stylish and distinctive office building with a rich history, in one of the most beautiful locations in Rotterdam. The De Ruystplaets building dates from the late 19th century and has since been renovated, refurbished and expanded on various occasions. Very recently (2019) the building underwent a thorough renovation, during which the entire façade was renovated and the building was fitted with, among other things, new ceilings, LED lighting, new sanitary facilities and a new air handling installation with cooling.
The building has 6 floors, and StartDock occupies the basement, ground floor and first floor.
The concept
Within StartDock, various relevant events are organized and there is active consideration of partnerships within the building. The hub is within walking distance of public transport and many restaurants and shops. Rent your own lockable office space from 15 – 500 m², or a 24/7 workstation. This location also offers a flex workspace by the day or a virtual office.
In StartDock’s philosophy, growth is best achieved by ruling out direct competition within the four walls of an office building, creating an open and warm community of companies that genuinely want to help each other move forward. From a web development company to a photographer, and from an accounting firm to a chatbot consultant, at StartDock the strength of the community is the breeding ground for your company’s growth.
In other words, StartDock is the place to be for companies ready for their next step. We would be happy to show you this beautiful building.
Location
The location in the Scheepvaartkwartier is characterized by its position along the Veerhaven and the Maas.
The Scheepvaartkwartier is by far the most beautiful location in Rotterdam, thanks to its maritime, spacious character, its stunning setting along the Maas and the classic appearance of its buildings. The Scheepvaartkwartier is very centrally located on the edge of Rotterdam’s city center. The stately avenues such as Parklaan and the renewed boulevards along the Maas and the Veerhaven make the Scheepvaartkwartier a lively and unique working environment.
Right on the picturesque Veerhaven is the society KR&ZV “De Maas”. Within walking distance are several well-known restaurants and (grand) cafés, such as: Loos, Zeezout, Huson, Parkheuvel**, The Harbour Club, Dewi Seri, and the Westelijk Handelsterrein with, among others, Rosso.
Accessibility
Westplein is easily accessible by car. The Rotterdam ring road (A16 and A4/A15) can be reached within a few minutes.
The water taxi has a stop right outside the door on the Veerhaven. Westplein is also very well accessible by public transport, with a tram, bus and metro stop within walking distance, from which the entire city can be reached in no time.

Turnover tax
The tenant must be prepared to grant a power of attorney to the landlord to submit, jointly on the tenant’s behalf, a request to the Turnover Tax Inspectorate for permission to charge turnover tax on the rent.
The starting point is that, throughout the entire lease period, the tenant will use the leased premises for at least the statutory minimum percentage, or more, for turnover-tax-liable transactions.
