Rotterdam - The Netherlands(Holland)

population 600.000

Metropolitan Area 1,2 million

Photos are form the Dutch forumpeople






















Under Construction


























Some historical pics.
Rotterdam Before the Bomb in 1940



and After the city(cleaned up) was totally bombed and mostly burned down.



Thats why the city is totally new and modern.
Some old buildings where not destroyed like the Cityhall, White House(high white officebuilding on photo) and Office and some other streets.

Many of Rotterdam's buildings are wonderful. Atlanta and other North American cities should "borrow" some of these designs.
