It seems that Rotterdam has a good potential in contemporary architecture.

It sure has. But there's a decent amount of quality contemporary architecture in most Dutch cities. Rotterdam has the most to offer for skyscraper fans though. And even more so in a couple of years; there are some excellent projects under construction right now.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

^ Thanks, I do need to get out more.

Seems like a good New Year's resolution. Right now it's too cold though.

Great shots! Those wacky dutch. They've got it going on - and they're tall! I was at the airport in Madrid in November, there was a flight to Amsterdam next to a flight to Lisbon. I swear the folks going to Lisbon were running through the legs of the Amsterdam travelers to get to their gate.
