Description Architect: Van den Broek en Bakema
• The building was destroyed by a big fire on 13th May 2008. Presumably, a short circuit caused by a faulty water pipe started the fire at the Faculty of Bouwkunde. It was the biggest fire in a highrise building in the Netherlands to date and the first which destroyed such tall buildings complete interior.
